Kynoch .500 3" Nitro for Black
      #236544 - 09/10/13 05:46 AM

Anyone ever shoot the real Kynoch .500 3" Nitro for Black in an original BPE rifle? They are claiming 1900 fps with a 440 grain Woodleigh.

That is well above the original BPE w/ 360 grain pp at 1800 fps.

Starting on page 146 of 2009 Gun Digest, the writer clocks his 500 bpe with the 440 Woodies over
72 grains of Varget @1865 f/s.

He also clocks some BP loads with the same 440 Woodies @1808
