Trunk Reloading - the .500 RAM cartridge

My friend Bret demonstrates a wildcat (custom) caliber round reloaded with very basic tools from the trunk of his car while at the range. The .500 RAM is a .300 Rem Ultramag case, cut at 2" length, and sized to fit a .510" diameter bullet, usually a military surplus .50 cal BMG projectile. The rifle he uses is one of 21 custom made for this home made round. The round is heavy and slow, but packs a huge wallop! This process is crude, but it works.

@jrc99us Of course we are from Minnesota. I've often wondered what someone from another are of the country would sound like doing an imitation of us. It would be interesting to hear us like you do.
