Why are modern rimmed cartridges like the 458WM or 416Rem described often as being "problematic" in double rifle stopping guns? Ejection or Extraction problems? Thanks...
I stand corrected. I meant to type "modern rimless" cartridges...thanks, Mike.
Hi, if I get a custom made double in .500 Jeffery, will the pressure be to high?
Thanks Spike.t and Dugaboy1,
Okay, what is the max muzzle speed can I get from .500 NE? Possible to get 2,400 Fts from 500-535 grains bullet?
If the 500 Nitro is not powerful enough you could always step up to a 577 Nitro Express.
If the 500 NE 3" won't kill it, the others won't either.
Hi Spike.t. I think it was either a 190 lb black marlin or a 170 lb sailfish. That was in Andaman Islands, India this past January.
I think .50 calibre makes enough big holes ready.
Plus I prefer to use 500-535 grains bullet as felt recoil is fine for me for a quick follow up shot.
Spike.t. It has been a rough year for me indeed. This year I think I only spend less than 40% time at home. I just came back from a second fishing trup in Andaman Islands last week. Off again to Namibia next Tuesday.
My wife has not complained yet
