This video from BIG MAN with GUN explores five 'epic fail' big bore cartridges that failed to gain traction. It details the technical specifications, intended purpose, and reasons for the commercial failure of the 41 Action Express, 45 GAP, 45 Super, 500 Special, and 440 Corbon, offering insights into ammunition development and market reception.
This Q&A session covers a wide range of firearms topics, from the least pleasant guns to shoot (Liberator, pistol-grip 12 gauge) to favorite showcased firearms (Howa Type 100). Discussions delve into cartridge development (6.5mm vs. 30 caliber, 280 British, 8x33mm Kurz, 41 AE, 38 Rimfire), firearm design principles (cylinder gap, blowback actions, hexagonal barrels, suppressors), military designations, and historical conflicts where rifle technology played a significant role (Austro-Prussian War). The host also touches on practical advice for two-gun shooting in restrictive states and personal collection goals.
