Original performance claimed by Westley Richards IMO is highly suspect. I say this b/c with modern game laws, the slug gun is necessary in many regions. If the LT's viable at 2-300 yard it seems someone would be punching out something similar in the correct diameter to run thru the plethora of rifled slug guns out there today. I know of no-one claiming even 200 yard slugs for deer size game.
I wonder what the trajectory looks like for the WR magnum explora @ 300yards. My guess it would require a miracel to hit anything beyond 200 yards in unknown terrain  .
The initial concept of the rifled choke or paradox gun was versatility. Leslie Taylor's capped bullets gave the user the ability/possibility to hit targets beyond 150yds. Taking risky shots and leaving wounded game was not unusual in the times these guns were used. Would a 400/350NE be any easier to use for 300yds open site shots? The difficulty is in judging distance.
