Woodleigh vs Hornady
Currently shooting Woodliegh 480grn softs and solids out of my 1905 Gibbs 450 3 1/4NE, but have not shot anything bigger than a pig with this load. The gun and I are going to Zim for Buffalo and Tuskless and I am thinking of trying Hornady's DGX and DGS bullets as they appear to be of stouter construction. Would someone with field experience with these bullets please toss some advice my way as whether I should stay with the Woodlieghs are go with the Hornadys
Thanks

You may post this up in the Double Rifle or Big Bore forum.

Here is some interesting info about bullets and pressures in double rifles.

Last hunt I carried North Fork Cup Points and CEB solids in my double.

I have used Woodleighs, softs and solids, in my 450 No2, my 450/400 3 1/4" and in my 9,3x74R.

I can say that their performance has been nothing short of PERFECT.

In the 450 No2, 500 Swift A Frames, and 450gr North Fork solids and cup point solids have performed PERFECT as well.
