That's true. IF you can get to 2100 fps or more with the 400 gr bullets, it will equal the old .404 Jeffery.
Hello NitroX,
Thanks for your reply.
400g Hornady SP - 56g IMR4198 = 2150 fps
I obtained this velocity with my old Oberndorf 10.75x68 rifle that I sold in 2021. I will be testing this load in this new rifle as well, and I expect similar results. This is nearly identical to 450-400 NE 3" results, which has been used extensively in Africa.
