Can 500 Linebaugh brass be used?

Starline makes 50 Alaskan brass which can be cut to 1.6" and used. Hornady made a run of Maximum brass a few years back and they turn up for sale periodically. The parent cartridge for the .500 Linebaugh, the 500 Linebaugh Maximum and the 50 Alaskan is the .348 Winchester but I haven't seen any of those around.

Steve, gorgeous gun! Sorry it needs to move along.

Thanks Will.
I've decided that I'll leave it up until Saturday 6/21, after that It goes go back in the safe. I think the price is fair, I believe it would cost a good deal more to have it duplicated. This one gets to stay home, thanks for looking.
