.450 BOXER | THE LIBERAL GUN CLUB My latest reloading adventure has been .450 Boxer/ .450 Adams (also known as .450 Corto, .450 Colt and .45 Webley. In 1868 this became the first metallic cartridge to be officially adopted by the British Military.

The .577 Snider-Enfield is a single-shot, breech-loading rifle. The Mark III has a lock on the side latch which secures the breech block in place.

The parallax to 10 yards is a nice feature as is the side focus and FFP setup, with the scope being sturdy and well built. It’s not a $1000 optic, but it’s also not
