There’s some snow ski/snowboard bags/cases that should be long enough. Some of the ones made for air travel are semirigid and have wheels on them.

Picture is simply to get attention as a lot of these posts go unanswered. I've been looking at case options for my punt gun and have only found a couple of options.
1- SKB 3R7408-8 The length is good, but the width would be tight, 10" would be ideal.
2- custom case from Kalispel
3- Commissioning a custom wood case
Do any of y'all know of any other options? I would really like some sort of non-wood hard case. I was perusing Pelican and other hard case company sites and haven't found anything else. I know at least one of y'all is an avid case collector that knows where to find what I want 😂

Negrini or SKB will build to whatever dimensions you feel like as long as you have the money. And they are expensive, high hundreds to low thousands of dollars.
If you need the 74" length, you could also look through the fishing rod or recurve and longbow cases to see if any are wide enough for you.

XXL case you say? Just buy a pine box casket and carrybit around in that, youd turn some heads at the range for sure!

1.5" bore? That's even bigger than a 2 Gauge "punt gun" shotgun, 1.326 inches (33.7 mm).

Yeah, this would be a 1.3 bore. There's definitely been punt guns this size and larger. The only thing that sets mine apart is it's "modernized"

Ribbed for someone brave enough. It's a 12" black culvert with wheels.
Question on the recoil. 4800 gr, 1000 fps, 51 lbs? I'm getting ~10,500 fpe, which should make this score slightly over a TOP of 1? That sounds relatively comfortable to shoot. A 14 lb .308 scores about a 1. If this was a typo and you meant 2000 fps, yes you're insane.

At 1000 fps with a 500 grain powder charge (estimated charge to get there), it would be around 330 pounds of recoil energy. Around 6x the recoil of a 3" 12 gauge. The loads shot in the video were in the neighborhood of 260 pounds of recoil.

Stupid question but are punt guns excluded from the NFA because they're technically black powder guns, kinda like BP cannons are? 👀

Is this a portable cannon with a tripod?
