Where can I shoot a safari grade rifle?

Anybody know where I can go to shoot a safari grade rifle, specifically a .600 overkill? Im in the eastern Pennsylvania area and most ranges don't allow it. I would think anywhere that would allow a 50 BMG should allow any safari grade rifle round.

Safari Grade usually refers to the stock style as well as the type of fit and finish on the rifle, not necessarily the caliber. I've seen Safari Grade rifles in 7X57, 30-06 and 270.

I think you want to shoot a big bore rifle. Normally anything over .40 caliber. Many would be made in a Safari grade, but not always.
