SHOOTER SHOULDERS RECOIL FROM LARGEST-CALIBER RIFLE IN THE WORLD
https://www.wideopenspaces.com/big-gun-big-fun-shooting-worlds-largest-rifle-video/

Quote
The gun in the video is one of only three ever manufactured in the .950 JDJ. This prototype weighed 50 pounds but still produced excessive recoil. Subsequent versions weighed a minimum of 110 pounds.

The round is not for penny pinchers (every round costs about $40) and we're not too sure about the accuracy (this kind of recoil tends to promote flinching), but it sure looks like it would be fun to try.

At 50 pounds, this gun is a little too heavy to take coyote or deer hunting, but if you're looking for some explosive and slightly masochistic fun maybe you could get a .950 JDJ of your own.

When you get done shooting they have a guy ready to swing a 30 pound sledgehammer on your toes to make your shoulder feel better.

Any idea if they are going to offer a light-weight version for backpacking??

Not quite a 2500gr projectile but this gun is painful as well!

Texas heart shoot an elk and you wouldn't even need to gut it, just start quartering and packing it out.

Funny how everyone was trying to act cool about the recoil.   :chuckle:
