Why haven't anyone mentioned .500J effery yet?? Splendid round, cheaper bullets, a nicer fitting cartridge in the action.
It also gave a higher velocity than .505 with the original load.

Heard the other day about a competition-shooter who tried one shot with a .505 loaded hard! He was used to nothing more than a .30-06, and wanted to try it. I dont recall the position he shot from, but after pulling the trigger, he had hit smack in the middel of the target, but bled heavily from both nostrils.. He was never EVER going to shoot such a big bore again....

I find my .470 heavy enough
