Feets / Collection / My build BPS10 gauge

Post image

Benelli for scale. It identifies as a Flak 88. Its pronouns are ack-ack..

BPS10, 10ga pump with Briley mag tube extension and holosun HS510C. 3oz #4 buck cannon for long range penetration. Extra full choke. You will need shoulder surgury after one mag dump.

Oh that is COOL! I do want a 10 gauge at some point, mainly because no one offers an 8 gauge 😁

comments about old punt guns and botique custom shops or guntubers shooting 4 bores or Russian ks-23 guns (ultimate dream haha) need not apply, im talking a shotgun for which i could buy shells at my local gun store…sadly 10 gauge is the limit, and hard to find the actual gun…

You can find a. 8 ga or larger punt in Canada. Keep looking in the usual places. Patience young one.

Oh I’m sure you could but as per my initial comment, where would one source ammo or even reloading supplies for such a beast? I’m not being rhetorical, I’d love to know 😁😁😁

As far as recoil and mag dumps, I suspect that big heavy 10 wouldn’t be nearly as abusive to the shooter as some of the super light 12 gauges with turkey loafs haha. At the store I work at we’ve got those stupid Charles Daly break action single shots with 12 inch barrels. Can’t weigh more than 4 pounds I don’t think. And we’ve got 2 oz turkey shells…the masochistic recoil junkie in me wants to buy one just to ride the lightning haha but I have too many other things I plan to waste money on that are more important.

Ok, so its all handloads with 10ga. All components are available in Canada. 10ga cheddite hulls and primers. I cast my #4 buck. You can modify a lee load-all to 10ga

And I encourage you to shoot a 3oz 10ga and let me know your comments on recoil.
