My attempt to honor them (chamberings), and hopefully more to follow in the future ...

.257 WBTY - Roy Weatherby

.270 AI - Jack O'Connor and Parker Otto Ackley

.30 Gibbs - Rocky Gibbs

.30 LARA - Roy Weatherby, Layne Simpson, and Kenny Jarrett


NOTE: The above are "my" custom, semi-custom, and modified rifle builds as influenced by pioneers noted next to the chamberings.

No other gun designer has been credited with so many revolutionary firearms designs. John had over 100 firearm patents back in his day.
Perhaps but what I listed are chamberings I have to honor the pioneers associated with them; my intent was not about the firearms manufacturers as I too have various brands; otherwise, I would have named them as such. As you can see, there is no manufacturer name to it.

John and Roy are basically the only two that created their own cartridges and didn't just modify something that was already done.
 
LOL! Brother, you are still missing my point. The above are customs, semi-customs, and modified, are build as influenced by the pioneers noted. Yes, I have a .44 Mag.
Apparently so. Keith pioneered the development of the 357 44 Mag. In any case have a good day.
 
Warning! This thread is more than 4 years ago old.
It's likely that no further discussion is required, in which case we recommend starting a new thread. If however you feel your response is required you can still do so.
