Isopeura,
Anyway ... reason I'm interested is on another forum there's a thread on a 423/375 wildcat ... pretty much straight walled like a miniaturised 458Lott. I'm considering building one on a Rem700 action just to see how it would go and barrel contours and their effect are what I always struggle to come to terms with! In this 423/375, I'm hoping to see something like a 400gr at 2300fps and a 450gr at 2150fps, so it's not a hard kicker ... but should be very similar ballistically to the 400 H&H.
Cheers...

It seems an awfull lot of trouble to go to, to duplicate the balistics of the .404 Jeffery.
The later Kynoch loading I have here is 400gns @ 2250fps and that can be bettered in a modern action.
