It's a NO GO mate..... Limited quantities available at long intervals. And importing these would be a nightmare......

Thanks man. Here is the list just in case.
30/06
50 cal
7.62 X 54
300 Winchester Magnum
303 British
.270 Nosler
308 Berger
Warthog
.416 Barrett
8mm Mauser

Dude there is no .416 cal Barrett .Heckler & Koch makes a version of m-16/m-4 carbine with gas piston mechanism which they sell as HK416 but it uses same 5.56*45 mm ammo and the 8mm mauser you are taking about is ww2 era 7.92*57 mm Mauser ammo which will be very difficult to find..50 cal BMG(ball machine gun)rounds have a cartridge that is 99mm in lengthSeriuosly you are gonna carry it in your pocket?30/06 is the Springfield 7.62*63 mm ammo used by the US during ww2 which is also quite rare

Well.... He actually just gave the list that was given to him by the supplier.....

BTW, there IS a .416 Barret. It is the equivalent of the 50 BMG for use in long-range high-caliber rifles. The .416 is the civilian equivalent of the 50 Cal. Not in production since 2005 or so but it still exists. It is like the difference between the 7.62 & the .308 Both are essentially the same but the 7.62 is used by the Military/Police whereas the .308 is for Civilians.

As for the 30-06 Springfield, it is very much available & is being used by Civilians. Civilians use it as the 30-06 Winchester.

And lastly, the 50 Cal. everyone knows that they are huge..... And that is the whole point in having one of these..... It is the Godzilla of Rifle Cartridges!!! I wanted it to be able to hang it from the rear view mirror in my car..... I dunno why Mohit wanted it.... But even as a showpiece on ur desk, it wud look cool....
