Thanks Daryl

So, was the .577 bpe ever used as an elephant/rhino/buffalo gun? where may i obtain stories? Is it a 4,000 ft lb round? or more?

Back to the 8's and 4's.....

I remember once reading an argument saying the 8's had superior penetration to the 4's,due to the sheer size of the 4's rounds vs i suppose its increase in energy.

The 4's seem amazingly rare, and the 8's very much less so.....

What was the main round of the day anyway? as an all rounder,if you like? (i.e. capable of use against an ele bull with correct shot,and good for everything else large/medium also)

Ben
