Re: Questions about the 45-120 / Rigby .450 3 1/4 N.E.

Don't know about the Barnes but alot of it has to do with the length of the bullet.

On a close shot, we haven't the luxury of allowing the bullet 100 yd. or more to "Go to Sleep" before
impacting, somthing most bullets require" - Don't agree with you on this one.

I know Big Bore Woodleighs (375+) don't have a problem stabilising within 100 yards - even
5 yards - as I shoot both Targets and DG at 10 yards and out and I know they pentrate
OK which they wouldn't if they were yawing. Have shot 375, 404, 458, 450, 465, 470, 500
including the really long 350gn 375's and 550gn 458's which are long bullets for the calibre.
