SatanTube just removed one of my comments, STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE for those communists, well they are from Cali-Uicornia (California) after all.
Perhaps you could possibly do anti tank guns ??? I bet that would be fun
Sako are some of the most well crafted rifles ever
A well crafted rifle is one you learned the basics on and kept that schooling in your head. Meaning that you were learning the math of ballistics because you would die without the answers. 1. How fast is it? How flat is it, how much energy does it carry at it's perfunctory range, and what is that??? What,what, what??? Questions that caught you in the lethality of the weapon you hold. Don't forget to understand the difference between your lethality, and truthful right to exercise defense. You can be lethal all day long and rightiously choose not to. I have chosen many times to not kill idiot's! It's along the lines of seeing a beautiful idiot.. like lemmings jumping off! you know their logic will kill themselves yet notice the beauty in that suicidal idiocy! They appear to be a threat, but just want to die before pupation ends. With some pubertal psychosocial fears go on until 85 years Old! Mostly they are blonde and Californian, but can be found throughout the world in a .5% solution. The beauty of social suicide by self righteousness... Willing to jump if others garrunteed to follow... Yep that's the Dems!!! Break out the thorozine and halodol chemical restraint is required , for the Dems. Oh shi... Wait! This is why the CIA is importing fentanyl, heroin meth and, anything that kills your family!!!
@@bobdixon4998 Stop it. Get some help.
@@bobdixon4998 dude ur out to lunch.
You sound crazy writing all that shit
@@bobdixon4998 De-caf is an option. This is about an Elephant/big dangerous game cartridge.
@@bobdixon4998 They say aluminum foil helps with that….
This cartridge was developed after WWI by the August Schuler Company, a German firm, that named it the 12.7x70mm Schuler, or more commonly called the .500 Schuler. Since there was still a lot of animosity towards German people and companies in the aftermath of the war, it was renamed .500 Jeffery by the W.J. Jeffery Company. The purpose of this cartridge, was to put big bore dangerous game power in a standard length Mauser 98 bolt action rifle. At this time, double rifles were much preferred over bolt action rifles, for hunting dangerous game. It is still an excellent caliber for this type of hunting, and is chambered in rifles that most people can afford to buy and shoot.
My 1st high powered rifle was a Sako L579 Forester in 22-250 in 1972. Bought it for $150. Nice smooth rifle. Notable quality even in the days when there were pre-64s everywhere.
Lucky it’s not a borrowed gun, you scratched it and dropped it on top of a hex screw multiple times 😂
Just picked up my new .308, looking forward to getting out for a hunt real soon.
Greetings from Australia 🇦🇺
Yes , that hurt my soul to see that beautiful rifle bounced around that table .
I bought my Sako 264 Win nag when I was 16. It's been a perfect rifle for me. I'm 72 and plan on leaving it to my grandson when the time comes. Fun channel.
For perspective - it would be nice to see the cartridge alongside a .45-70. so we can see the actual size of those shells.
Same case as a 338 lapua- just a hair longer-it send a 550 grain pill about 2500fps with a case full of h4895. It visibly fatter and the case is almost the same diameter as a 45-70 rim
You are terribly misinformed. 500 nitro shoots the same projectiles and the jeffery has more power
@@jozefhorvat3625 Both cartridges use a .510 bullet. If you wanted to load that 570gr projectile in the Jeffery, you could. Just like regular calibres, the ammunition comes in various weights.
@@jozefhorvat3625 They both shoot the exact same caliber projectile(.510) they both can shoot up to 600gn projectiles. 500 jeffery holds 20 more grains of water though so it can push bullets faster.
@@WHOTEEWHO Could you also recommend the .500 Jeffery for ground squirrels?
Clay block with that... really big clay block! Elephant size clay block!
Looking forward to seeing the paper plates, water jugs and clay test to come🙏👍💥💥🐘🐘
Can’t afford that at $21 per round.
All I can say .... you the man. I'm just glad there's no elephant in Kentucky but that is a beautiful rifle. Bet that cost 20-30 dollars more than your Ruger American does. 👍👍
Good thing you didn't cry in front of the camera after a dislocated shoulder! You're the man!!
Dislocated shoulders from big bores are as fake as people in action movies taking cover from fire behind a 1 inch wood table. Fantasies.. probably carried on by someone that has never fired anything bigger than a 308 in his entire life..The real story is just that some people have the balls to shoot them and others just hide themselves in the "dislocated shoulder myth".. Nice gun BTW! a 500 Jeffrey si missing in my collection 😄
This is the most excited I’ve been about a RUclips video ever! Please make lots of videos with that beast!!!!! Freaking awesome!!!!!!!!!!!
I can only assume that the main thought behind taking that much recoil abuse is that it will still hurt less than taking a hit from an elephant.
And even if you flinch a little you'll still hit that big target.
Or a cross buff.
A) I don’t think I couldn’t fail to flinch bigly.
B) I enjoy having my retinas attached.
Would it be safe for long term plinking?
Lol!!!😂
That is a really nice looking rifle. Love the wood on it. Glad the recoil was manageable.
Respect for not editing out where you nearly dumped the rifle on the floor. Not many Elephants or Cape buffalo roaming free here in the Uk but I have a Ruger No1 chambered in .416 REM Magnum for fun, it has stout recoil but less I’m sure than the .500 Jeffrey. Looking forward to further instalments as you get acquainted with the beast.
Reload cast Bullets in it . Be A LOT cheaper and less recoil . I’ve got a 375 Ruger that I got and that’s what I load it up with . 275 grain cast Bullets at about 2200 FPS and now kicks about somewhere between a 308 & a 30-06. Helluva lot of fun and I can shoot for less than a .75 a round now .
Take that riffle out and hunt some wild hogs that would be an amazing sight to see. Would also love to see what that would do some clear ballistic gel with a slow-mo camera to catch the reaction of the gel blocks. Would be curious to see what the solid would look like after hitting some concrete blocks or paper plates if you could capture one of those bullots that would be awesome. Bet those would really ring the steel if you hit those gongs. Excited to see what you come up with for future videos.
Oh boy WTW, I see the box of ammo in background. That thing will be a blast to shoot. I just like big bore rifles. This will be a fun video, may make you a little sore tho. Good shooting and gods speed to the WTW FAMILY AND FANS. 👍🇺🇸
I'll bring it up next time
Bison! You need to hunt bison! Or hogzilla! My shoulder hurts just watching you shoot that booger.
A real guy who really was from Finland told me that Sako is pronounced Sock - O and that Seiko is a watch. Awesome gun by the way 👍
it is indeed pronounced, 'SOCK-oh'
@@mdd1963 Thanks for the second 👍😊
Me too!! Found a steal! Cerakoted stainless steel Mossberg Patriot in 375 Ruger for $380!!! Sighted it in today. Kicks noticeably more than the 300 ultra mag but accurate as heck!! I'm using the Hornady Superformance 270 gr at 2,850 fps and 2 shots cut each other just to the right of center bull at 100 yds!! I'm going to have a muzzle break put on in the spring to tame it just a bit
Good stuff, man.
That’s awfully expensive ammo for shooting at the range. Where and when is the safari?
Some of these rifles kick so bad your not going to shoot many.
The one with the buffalo on the box is $216.99 right now on midway! 21.70 dollars a round!
@@jonathank7394 he had 2 boxes of 10
As a huge Sako lover and collector you scored big! I have the Sako 85 in the Black Bear model in 9.3x62 which is like comparing a 22LR to a 308 next to your 500 Jeffery. I've fired a friend's and it certainly does have some boogie alright. I bet if you fired that at a Cape buffalo bearing down on you the recoil would be hardly felt. Thanks for sharing!
9.3x62 don't get enough love for it same as the 9.3x57
That's half the power of a .50 BMG in a rifle you can carry. 🤟
Rifle: BAAANNGGGGGHHH!!!
Earth: shattered
Bossman: Oohhh YeaHHHH!!!
I could see Al Borland saying "I don't think so, Tim."
I've loaded those in the past. The brass is good for about 6 loadings, if you anneal it properly. I don't know if you can still get dies for them anymore, but I think you can. I think Lee still makes molds for the hard cast bullets. Nice gun. I've found my .475 H&H Magnum is the Goldilocks of my big bore rifles.
You planning on going Elephant or Cape Buffalo hunting some time in the near future?? What ever possessed you to buy a .500 Jeffrey?? I didn't know Whitetails in Tennessee got that big.🤣🤣🤣
I heard they got some big ole zombies over there across the river in Tennessee
Where did you find that rifle? You sir, have the best shoulder-fired (without a muzzle-brake or otherwise) rifle in the best caliber you can get! I have built and shot a lot of.50 BMG rifles and guns (and way beyond .50 BMG, for that matter... including .585 Nyati and .600 Nitro's, as well as .50/140 Sharps 3 1/4" and .510 Gibbs Improved/Cheytac)! But what you have now with the Sako in .500 Jeffrey is as good as it gets! By the way, you did not have to tell us about the recoil, we all saw it and you were definitely right (that looked worse than any heavyweight punch that I have ever witnessed)!
(P.S.: You can start testing targets with paper plates and concrete blocks/pavers and also a stack of oak (or other tough hardwood, like hickory or locust) vs. the .50 bmg!
Better yet, get with Scott on Kentucky Ballistics and compare the Jeffrey to his .500 and .700 Nitro Expresses! Just some thoughts.
Buying a gun like that is similar to dating a redheaded woman. It is expensive and hard on ya but a lot of fun.
@@cheryltysver6132 I can't tell if you're bragging or complaining. Well either way you must be a very well to do person ,to have experience shooting these monsters. You must have a large pocket and large body to shoot these huge cabilars . Shooting something like this I can't even imagine how hard it must be on the body.
@Mike Franklin Operative word is 'date'. Long term and you'll be damaged for life. However, there is nothing sweeter than red. Blonds come in second.
You know durn well that 500 about to took your arm off and you sat in a hot tub for over an hour right after this video. 😂! I bet you couldn't move your arm right for a week. 😂! Thanks for the laugh. 😂!
You definitely need to take it hunting and show the results. That thing kicked like crazy!
There won't be any deer meat left after the animal takes one of these rounds. You'll need a mop and bucket to clean up the mess! Lol
500 Jeffery brother , wow that would stop a Kenworth..... Nice gun mate 👍.... Had a look and couldn’t see that type of ammo for sale. Might be special order.... No elephants down here , probably a buffalo would pull it up ( or a Kenworth ) 👍🇦🇺
I bought a Model 70 Safari Express in .375 H&H in 2003. I have not had a single incident of cape buffalo, elephants or rhinos trampling my garden ever since!
HA! And to think my wife said "What do you need THAT one for?" Women. What do they know?
Seriously...I use cast bullets for practice shooting. Great fun. And no more expensive than shooting any other centerfire rifle (well, uses a bit more powder) and with cast bullet loads is not a hard recoiling rifle at all.
Needed a new whitetail deer gun was my excuse for getting a cz550 375h&h. And after reading hunting stories, it turns out to be a good whitetail gun. With a clean hole in and out it does alot less meat damage than my 3006.
@@jaspergross6866 I have heard that, and I don't dispute it. In Africa the .375 H&H is/was used for everything from smaller-than-whitetail antelope to elephant.
But as a *deer* rifle, I do not see it replacing my very slim, trim, light and easy to carry Model 99 Savage in .300 Savage.
Holy Crowley that thing packs a punch. Sako are beautiful pieces of equipment. I’m a Tikka a fan, which is the poor mans Sako and they make the Tikka barrels.
WTW- get's sent into an alternate dimension. Also WTW- "recoil's not too bad". Man your shoulder is made of tougher stuff than mine. Hopefully someday I'll have that kind of recoil resistance.
The late Skeeter Skelton once said "that recoil when properly handled is to feared about as much as the embrace of a Swedish beauty queen."
My shoulder hurts watching that my dude 😂 keep um' coming good sir
I've always wondered how these elephant guns compare to a 50bmg if they made a hunting rifle cambered in a 50bmg I believe it would be way better then any elephant gun.
I like your new rabbit gun.. I'd hate to see that gun get scratched up in the briar patch. nice gun thanks for showing it to us
50 Bmg is a lot more powerful then most “Elephant” guns but the rifles that shoot 50Bmg are normally 30 pounds or heavier…. How long do you plan on walking around the safari carrying a 30 plus pound rifle? The answer is not long. It’s about getting enough power in a handy 8-12 pound rifle.
@@tylermatthews7655 that's what I was saying if they could make a hunting rifle in a 50bmg that's not no 30 pound Target rifle I'm sure people would rather have it over a hard to find elephant rifle you can find 50bmg at academy. I don't know if someone could take that recoil though.
Too expensive and heavy. The only thing that's good might be military surplus and reloaded to manage the smaller charge and bullet
One finnish gunsmith made howdah pistol in .50 BMG it's funny and because of short barrels recoil was not so bad but you don't want shoot twice. Gunsmith name was Helenius sadly he had a stroke and can not work anymore.
That's a lot of gun. Nice. Hard to keep the grin off at the beginning. Lol. Great show as usual.
Watch it! These things can be addictive to shoot. You haven't experienced expense until you start buying ammo for a big bore like this. Last time I bought .375 H&H it was $3.00 a trigger pull. Had a .577 NE that was over $100 per 5 cartridges, Had to sell it, but I still love the old elephant stoppers.
last time i bought ammo for my .470 NE was about $8.00 per bullet.. haven't even looked at prices lately, and i don't want to....
If you need some brass I've got about 100pcs once fired that I'm not going to need anymore
That's of the 375H&H
@@kevinbranham1284 I appreciate the offer, what do you want for them?
@@patriciastauffer3278 just counted them 113pcs 79 nickle and 34 brass , looked them up on forums went in the middle at .75 ea plus shipping, they ranged from .65 to a 1.00 a piece and these look fantastic 👌
Wow. This is a huge round. Well done on your new purchase.
Once upon a time 😉 I told my wife I'd like to have a .416 Remington. She asked me why I'd want such a thing.
I told her it was to keep elephants out of the corn patch. She told me, "Your .300 Winchester has been doing a good enough job"! 😂🤣
😆😆😆
A friend of mine took his .416 Remington to Africa for plains game and Cape Buffalo. Did a nice job on anything he shot.
Every gun collection needs an Elephant 🐘 gun... Love it... Thanks for the video WHO TEE WHO. My 1st time shooting my 375 H&H mag, I thought someone shoot me 🤣 Really fun video! Keep them coming
This is going to be a whole Lotta fun
🐘 🐘 🐘
Headshots!
@@WHOTEEWHO Looks like it kicks a little more than a lever action elephant rifle, I think it would be cool if you lined up those modeling clay blocks and see how many it would shoot through
I can see into the future he is gonna need extra padding and some ice packs after about 5 shots.
With your growing collection, you are covered for any critter trying to raid the garden. From chipmunks to elephants! 😂
We’re you surprised when you edited the id and saw how much you moved?
I videoed myself shooting my 505 Gibbs…it was hilarious! A few guys at the range also squeezed off a few rounds. One guy had his hat, glasses and earmuffs fly off his head! Absolutely brutal! 600g bullet at 2350fps was brutal, I loaded it up to 2550fps, it was totally unpleasant!
I was surprised
@@WHOTEEWHO me too. Lol.
WOW !!!!! That is serious horsepower. Sako are the benchmark in high quality, well engineered and well built rifles, I love them albeit they are (obviously) super expensive at the top end of the marketplace. Can't wait to see more vids on this gem 👍👍👍
Hey Who_TEE_WHO, takes a real man to stand behind the .500 Jeffery. The hardest hitting rifle I have ever shot more than once was a .300 Weatherby with 180gr bullets. That was enough for me.
6:55. This made me laugh so hard lol love your vids bro.
In your last video you mentioned that the .25-06 wasn’t the best deer cartridge but you were going to buy it in you next purchase, when your wife ok’d it. Is this your take on the best deer cartridge?
No 😆
Use a cartridge like that on a deer would see it gutted, skinned & quartered.
Limbsaver brother ¡!! Or you going to need shoulder replacement! Lol that's one beautimus gun .love those Sako rifles quality is garunteed. Those boolots are expensive so reloading is a must.enjoyed the video brother.
I'd love to see these huge rifles on a sled to do a recoil comparison with other hunting calibres.
Better be careful with a sled, those big guns can split a wooden stock easily
Can't wait to get a Sako. The actions are unreal.
Those look like 577 tyranasourus rounds 🙂or maybe the biggest weatherby 460 ?
Have to watch and see!
A shoulder thumper. Excellent deer cartridge........ 😜🤣🤣🤣
🦌🦌🦌
Let's go Brandon!
Perfect timing to watch a video. Had to take a joe...finished the video and wiped my kamala
I'm late because i was playing with the elevator.
Let's Go Brandon.
G'day,

Now !
;-p
Ciao !
@@WarblesOnALot I say the opposite of what you just said, and put it back on you. 🙂
The recoil slow mo's 🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍This is my new favorite pew pew on the channel!!! 😃😃😃
My favorite rifles are the more budget friendly Sako, the Tikka. Love em. Definitely need to kill a deer. Maybe a longer range test. Some penetration tests for sure.
Awesome! The kick on that thing was brutal. Might as well shoot those cartridges through a howitzer.
(6:30) Man I can't even imagine how that would look like if you take it on a deer hunt. Might not get a trophy, just a cloud of mist.
nah. they're big, fat, slow-movers (usually around 1900 - 2400 fps, depending on bullet weight). very little tissue destruction, other than the bullets actual path through the animal. If you want a cloud of mist, you have to shoot a fast mover, like a 7mm rem mag and 140 gr bullets and ~2800 fps or faster.
“Recoil wasn’t too bad”
Proceeds to get launched from camera view😂🤣 love the material man. Keep on keeping
😝😝😝
WTW, the .45-70 is quite a versatile 458. A few years back Brian Pearce ( gun writer) took an 1895 Marlin on safari in Africa after Africas most dangerous big game animal, the Cape Buffalo. His PH was reluctant to let him use it. They spotted a bull. Brian took the shot(s), the first one was the kill shot. As they approached the spot the first shot was taken there was a dead cow laying on the other side of the bull they didn’t see. 2 Cape Buffalo with one shot out of an 1895 Marlin pushing 500 gr solids. ( just to let you know what you already have)😁
45-70 is no joke load right
I will be expecting a hellacious clay block video soon!!!!!!
A new brush gun. Exciting !!
Yes!
My brother took a machining and gun smithing course at a technical college. He had to build a rifle and it had to shoot a 3 shot moa group at 100 yards. He built it on a Sako action and chambered it in 30-06.
WTW !!! That’s called taking 1 for the team, NO THANK U , lol GOD BLESS YA BROTHER, HAPPY THANKSGIVING 🦃
"Not satisfied with flingin' boo-lots and pingin' steel?
How 'bout straight blowin' holes in steel then?"
The .458 Win. mag with 500’s is what we use for pest control in Louisiana. We have parked ours until the outbreak for precautionary purposes not wanting to chance retinal detachment before the fun begins.
Thanks for the deals and discounts.
It indeed rattled your cage! It's always fun to watch these monstrous rifles recoil.
I would love to see you take any big game with it be a whitetail,mule deer,elk,bear anything!
Thanks for the video!
It may not be a budget friendly rifle but Sako makes gorgeous firearms- gorgeous rifle you have there
I love the powder confetti flowing out the barrel!
Yea those are some huge rounds & when you pulled the bolt back "man that bolt retracted WAY back, thats when I actually paid more attention to them mini rockets you call 500 Jeffrey.
This should be getting very interesting in the near future 🇺🇸👌👍👍🇺🇲
Sako are good weapons too. Back then, I had a Sako 375 H&H converted to the 404 Jeffery caliber by a Nuremberg gunsmith. I am a German from Franconia and now live in Thailand.
That stock though...I want to know more about what that wood is. Gorgeous.
Biggest round I've ever fired is just my 30-06. How does the recoil compare to one?
3006 is a pellet gun in comparison
Now , by all means man , that is a real gun. Beautiful as can be. And thanks for helping to decide what I want fer Christmas. Have a wonderful night.
Well this one got me to subscribe. The simple fact that you bought that gun AND AMMO shows you mean business. Great video keep up the good work!
Appreciate you watching and subscribing 🙏
That's a dandy rifle. The nice thing about the .500 Jeffery is the .510" bullets which are common and popular as opposed to the .505" bullets the .505 Gibbs shoots. You could load some nice cowboy loads with some Berry's bullets and some Red Dot for plinking.
Great stuff! I can relate. I have a 500 A-Square that shoots 600 gr. bullets at 2,470 fps, for 8,130 ft. lbs of muzzle energy. Knocks the fillings right outta your teeth! 😆 And like yours, no muzzle brake! Basically, these rifles have about 2/3 the power of a 50 BMG in a rifle platform that is 1/3 the weight! No doubt, the 50 cal. dangerous game rifles are impressive!
The 500 A-Square is, basically, a 460 Weatherby Magnum, necked up and blown out to 50 caliber.
That stock is beautiful. It makes nothing but sense to use a composite stock in a hunting gun and I have several rifles with composite stocks, but you give up just a bit of soul in so doing. I’d love that in .300 WSM, 6.8 Western or 7mm Rem Mag. Gorgeous.
Those chipmunks are in deep trouble now...... hehehe.
Indeed
Man that is way cool! Yes you are saying it correctly, my dad has a Sako.
Beautiful gun Who Tee!!!! Never heard of a Fluffo Mattress before lol
Quick reminder: Never ask Who Tee to do you a solid.
That recoil looks brutal! Can’t wait to see more from this thing.
Lots of boogie. Luck in your recovery. 😆
Who would be affraid of a blote named Jeffery lol. (Movie quote)! I absolutely love this rifle!!!!! Great purchase wood is extremely beautiful!!!! Packs a wallop love it!!
That illustrates the old adage "Kills on one end, and wounds on the other..."
That kick pretty hard and hits hard..
So I watched another video of a guy that shot a 55 gallon drum full of water and it literally picked it up and moved the entire drum with a .375 H&H. I would love to see what this thing would do to it!
Lol who tee who !!😂love the videos dude !! I was raised up with horses. If I remember right, that's what it looked and felt like when they would kick me !!!!😋😋you da man !!! Lol👍👍
😳😳😳
This is the surprise rifle meet your other half said you had to wait for LOL
Reload for it is best. Fletxher Jamisons favorite cartridge. As the elephant populations rises above the limits more and more in some regions, good prices for non trophy licenses can be had around in some countries.
My goodness. Look at that energy on the label! 😯
That's sooo cool! Be good for any bigfoot that drops by for a midnight snack too. I didn't know you lived in Tn! So do I ! Mid Southern Tn to be exact.
Wow WTW you have left the house with this one. Much recoil and not cheap to shoot. Thanks for the video
Dude awesome video I haven't laughed that hard in a long time, so hard it hurt. Thanks I needed a good laugh.
Thanks for watching Kevin
Suddenly, a wild elephant appears! WHO_TEE_WHO is ready.
Mega flinch toys that’s gonna leave a mark on the shoulder lol 😝! CLAY BLOCK A BIG ONE!!!
Wow! That's enough muzzle energy for three shots!
(I slowed it down even more...looked like it about pulled your arm out of the socket)
Man that thing packed a punch in both directions .
It is also good for Velociraptors, and helicopters! Get a recoil pad. If you see stars or flashes of light when you shoot that thing it is just your retina detaching.
