By far, the most controversial weapon that I own.  It has an effective range of about 3 miles, a total range of about 5 miles, and kicks like a mule!  I suppose that has to do with the fact that it uses a 600 grain bullet.  As a matter of fact, there are specially-designed rounds that limit the bullet's range to 2500 yards.  It has enough power to stop a bull elephant in a charge, and can punch a hole through a big-block engine.  All of which begs the question: why the hell do I have it?  The answer is surprisingly simple: because I can.  Not only that, but it's great fun to shoot.   And it's guaranteed to get people looking and asking questions when you lug this 6 foot monstrosity onto the shooting range.
