This Rifle Weighs 110 Pounds – See How Big The $40 Bullet Is

The world’s largest caliber rifle is nothing to sneeze at.
No seriously, odds are if you did sneeze at it (while you were shooting it) you just might break the pull of gravity and find yourself in orbit in a matter of minutes.
That’s because this rifle is insanely heavy to help adjust for the largest production caliber round in the world. It’s so heavy a few of the early models weigh in around 50 some pounds, but later iterations were 110 pounds plus!
Want to see how big this thing is and watch it dish out some punishment?
Just watch these guys shoot this beast.
If you didn’t catch this in the video the bullet is $40. It has the combined power of 20 rounds of 5.56mm, and the rifle you see in the video was ruled to be too light for proper shooting.
That’s something else, isn’t it.
So tell us, are you brave enough to shoulder this badboy and take it for a spin?

Big and bad is what I like. Can't afford it though.

When I worked for State of Illinois, we used 90 lb air hammers on construction. The crew would needle me when I was working the air hammer. I would pick it up and use it like a machine gun on them. Those were the days. ;)
