The largest practically available caliber is .50 BMG. However, a company named Anzio Ironworks makes several rifles that use the (larger) 20x102 Vulcan round. This ammo is about four times as powerful as .50 BMG and is used in miniguns and anti-material rifles.
They sell a bolt-action 20MM rifle using 3 round magazines for $11,900 or $16,200 for accessories and a suppressor. It's 6'8 long and weighs between 59 and 130 pounds. Online reviews say that the size is inconvenient but it's extremely accurate. Despite the high cost and complicated ordering, I think it's amazing and want one! I plan on getting one once I've saved up for it.
I know the site says to call for details, but if anybody here has bought one before, I would appreciate you telling me about the ordering process and shipping and all that. It says that they'll customize it and "You think it up – We’ll build it" which I'm curious about as well. I've never bought an NFA firearm before so I have no idea how to do so or anything about the paperwork for it.
For my fellow gun enthusiasts, what do you think about it?

The M134 Minigun shoots 7.62x51, not 20mm. The M61 Vulcan fires the 20mm and is a gattling cannon, similar in operation to the Minigun, but they aren't the same.

Ah, didn't know that. I was referring to the M61 Vulcan but thought it was a minigun.

Want it why? I appreciate a good rifle as much as the next man, but I don't see the point in owning a 20mm rifle. Is it just so you'll have the biggest gun on the block? You'll have a hard time finding a place to shoot it and the ammo will be enormously expensive. Seems like something that will just take up space the safe (if it FITS in the safe).
I'd rather take $1K and buy a good AR platform rifle and put the remaining $11k to $15k in my 401K. But that's me.
Oh they're guys around here that shoot .50's long range on steel. I'm sure a few of these will wind up somewhere in MT.
Those rounds are going to require military pull down powder to be affordable, which when you can find it is usually $60-80 for 8lbs. I checked on line and each round takes (if I am reading it right), 800 grns of WC872!! An 8lb jug would wield 70 rounds. Holy buckets of powder!
