Does MR ever actually put out BFRs in .475 Linebaugh or .500JRH anymore? I called and asked and was told somewhat unconvincingly by a sales guy that if it is still in the catalog, they still make it. I have casually kept an eye out for one for years and haven't seen one in either of these calibers. I know they have a custom shop that will make them though. Just wondering if anyone knows what the story is?
 
If you go to their web site, both single actions are listed.

The kicker is you have to call for pricing. I think they will build you anything you want, you just have to come up with the money. I'm sure a 50 to 75 % deposit will get the factory moving.
 
The .500JRH is what I am most interested in. It seems to go back and forth in the catalog over the years between a custom shop option and a regular production item, but I still never see them online or on shelves. Maybe they will make a batch for 2017 and actually put them out there again.
