Kevin Robertson has a table in his book "Africa's Most Dangerous" which lists the recoil velocity of different big game calibers. Some of the slowest were the 465 and the 505 Gibbs. Some of the fastest were the 378 Weatherby and the 460. Seems to define a "push" from a boxers' "jab"?

Hi Jon,
I saw your post for the .500 NE cases. Are these all brass or are they nickel plated? Hard for me to tell... sorry.
Thanks,
