I talked to Geoff about his 530 at the Shot show and he stated that he could get 2250 with no problem using 460 Weatherby brass which should have given him a case lenght of 2.885" compared to my case of 3.000"

Mike you have this thing figured out, an affordable big bore with an endless supply of brass good penetration and energy. Why build a 585 or larger when I can have 4 in the mag and one in the tube and with one pull of the triger unleash over 8,000 ft/lbs of energy.
