I see the .450 Jeffery listed as a caliber choice in some rifles but am unable to find any info on the cartridge (likely a lack of Googlefoo on my part). Is this a Domesticated Wildcat based on the .404 Jeffery Case?
 
You may be thinking of the 450 No 2 NE. Which is for a double rifle and many made by Jeffery
 
I thought I had seen it two different places but in retrospect it was only one.

I now suspect that it was a typo and was supposed to be .450 Rigby.
 
No the 450 Rigby exists very fine cartridge
Based on the 416 Rigby

Morning Rob, Any feeling for how the 300 H&H shoots? How's the barrel condition?

Hello. I see you hunted with Sampie recently. If you don't mind me asking, where did you hunt with him? Zim or SA? And was it with a bow? What did you hunt?

I am possibly going to book with him soon.
Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
