Higher pressure than a 375 H&H? 60,000 psi?

It is probably run at those pressures and 200fps higher only for marketing to beat out the H&H.Its real strength would be when loaded to 375 H&H velocities!! And we all know that 375 H&H velocities are more than adequate.

Unless my reasoning is wrong logic dictates it is a 375 H&H equivilent at similar or lower pressures.

Why?

If the water capacity of the new hull is 6 grains more than the H&H and it is shorter and fatter then it has a larger capacity and better burn of the powder column.Like the 416 Rigby vs the 416 Rem it can do the same thing at lower pressures. Thus in similar length barrels velocites should be the same at the same or lower pressures!!

Someone correct me if I am wrong!!

The more I think about it would be a North American dandy for close range Big Bear and other game out to 250+ yds in SS and a lightweight synthetic stock with a good trigger!!
