.700/ .577 Nitro-Express

Westley Richards appears to be introducing or "sounding out" a new cartridge. The .700/.577 Nitro Express. Per their web site (see link below) the cartridge will be loaded with a 900 gr Soft nose or solid and be driven at 2,300 feet per second for muzzle energy of 10, 280 ft lbs. Velocity is obtained from a 26" barrel.



The case is rimmed and as such it is anticipated that WR may be loading this round in a new double rifle.

Now that will be a powerhouse in a double.
