mickey and NE450No2

As I expected, the 470 N.E. would be the caliber of choice especially due to the availability of factory ammo. I was though little surprised in the lack of favorable response for the 450 3 1/4" N.E. and 450 No 2 (3 1/2") as it seems to me that there is a small resurgence of interest in these calibers, as well as many of the other big bore double rifle calibers.

I have also noticed that calibers other than 470 N.E. seem to be bringing high dollar prices for some reason, be it that the demand for DR's is greater and/or their are fewer of the other calibers available.

I am also wondering if maybe because of better bullet design, the calibers below 470 N.E. are becoming more popular enabling the hunter to carry a slightly trimmer DR with slightly less recoil.

These are some of my thoughts and all other thoughts and opinions are welcome!
