    Great Collection

    You don't have another .577 T-rex or spare Weatherby line-up do you? I currently have a .270, 300 and 460 Weatherby Magnum in my Weatherby line-up

    Is the tyrannosaur the one to the left of the .22LR Cartridge? I can certainly see the .30-378 with the green Ballistic Tip Projectile hanging out of it!

    Thanks for posting!

    How long are you up for and which part of the big smoke will you be in?
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Wasn't a problem when I got them. Had to pull projectiles and disarm primers in the live rounds. I just had to re seat them.

    Yes, T-rex to left of 22LR. 585 Nyati to right. Don't have a 2nd one sorry & probably no doubles of weatherby either. I will have a look at what I have double of though

    Yeah that would be great, thanks.

    Was this Pre 911 when you got these cartridges? Who pulled them, was it that shop in the States that you listed earlier?

    Was probably 3-4 years ago that I got them. He charged $1.50 from memory to make the round inert. Things may have changed looking at the website now though...
