Quackenbush Outlaw

The long action Outlaw is a 500fpe .457 caliber hunting rifle. The stock is familiar to tens of millions of shooters because the stock is the same shape and proportion of modern center fire rifles, like the Winchester model 70 and the Remington 700. The LA Outlaw shoots a 430gr bullet at 732fps, which is 509fpe. This rifle will produce two 500+fpe shots from its reservoir on one fill. It doesn’t need to be line fed from a scuba bottle, it doesn’t have the dependency of life support from a remote air source. Configured as a single shot, single fill rifle it will exceed 600fpe. The .457 cal. barrel is made expressly for airgun use. It is not a firearm barrel. This barrel has the correct riflingconfiguration and twist rate for an airgun. I chose .457 cal. for this rifle so the shooter could use any of the ready-made bullets or bullet molds intended for use for the 45/70 cartridge. Because the barrels are made from solid bar stock they are machined to the exact bore size without exception. This way the standard size bullets fit the barrel; it is not some oddball caliber.
