Info from the Hornady website from the link above in the thread: 450/400 Nitro Express 3" ![]() Legendary performance from a cartridge that could only be made today. First developed in 1902 as an all-around African cartridge, the original 450/400 Nitro Express 3" ammunition propelled a 400 gr. bullet to a muzzle velocity of just over 2100 fps. Over 100 years later, our engineers have replicated this African legend using modern technology and manufacturing process to perfect it. Loaded with either a 400 gr. RN expanding bullet or FMJ-RN Solid, the NEW Hornady 450/400 NE 3" cartridges are perfect for modern single-shot rifles and the ideal ammo for hippo, buffalo and other thick-skinned game. Great pains were taken to ensure that this ammunition will regulate in double rifles. Hornady's NEW 450/400 NE 3" takes an exceptional cartridge to new levels of perfection.
