I'm trying to talk myself into a medium bore DR. Can't decide between the 9.3's(most likely x 74), 375 Flanged, and 375 Mag. My original thought was that a "medium bore" needs to be scoped in QD rings. Spent alot of time looking at ballistic charts..... somewhere along the way, I looked at the 470 NE ballistics. A few comps: * numbers rounded and based on Federal Factory ammo*

375 Mag : 300@2440 fps ME: (0) 4000 (100yds) 3000 (200yds) 2200
"drop" (50yds) zero (100yds) zero (200yds) -6.5 inches

416 Rigby: 400@2400 ME: (0) 5100 (100yds) 4250 (200yds) 3500
"drop" (50yds) zero (100yds) zero (200yds) -6 inches

470 NE: 500@2150 ME: (0) 5100 (100yds) 4000 (200yds) 3000
"drop" (50yds) +.3 inches (100yds) zero (200yds) -8.5 inches

So why wouldn't I QR/scope my 470 ???
