I just saw this sale at GunAuction: https://www.gunauction.com/buy/15842337
It's had customizing work, making it a .50 Special.
Anybody ever hear of that caliber ??
The write-up at the website says this,
"The .50 Special cartridge is a wonderfully accurate and pleasant round with minimal recoil and muzzle blast, shooting 300 – 350 gr. bullets to 800-900 fps."
And those words from the seller's website which I copied above would look to be taken from the Bowen Classic Arms website:

Anyway, back to the .50 Special ..... I can't (yet) find any reference(s) to it.
