It drives the flat point 560gr. Lyman hard cast bullet (hardened WW) of 560gr. weight at 1,850fps. For those who feel the .450/.400 has plenty of poop, this load beats it in diameter, bullet weight, KO, FPE or whatever measurement is used. fpe is 4,257.



That sounds like a great bear round and certainly packs some punch. I'd love to see it in a head to head penetration test against a 450/400 firing woodleighs though and I'd definitely want to perform such a test before I pointed it in anger in the direction of a cape buffalo.
