Re: Help with caliber choice

I've got an Original 505 Gibbs.

By the way, I'm not a lefty, I can shoot both ways
from practice and in the field where I have needed to
change shoulders to shoot at Animals although I am
a damn sight better Right Handed (except when on a
bipod)

Re the Velocities - personally, there is no need to push
the bullets that fast - if it is possible - but also I think
the majority of people would end up scared of the gun.

Re 570 / 600gn bullets in 500 Jeff - it's not a problem,
a bit of powder compression. With the various powders
available now you could probably get away with another
powder that doesn't need compression.

Re trajectory - out to 150 - 200 - just hold and shoot
- out past here you just need to hold a bit high but personally
I wouldn't like to shoot at unwounded game past 200 yards
or even 150 yds.
