Sorry you are right I posted the wrong picture I was a bit too fast there.

The Gibbs is 10 mm longer then the Jeffery.

Cheers,

Andre,



If that picture is from American Hunting rifles, that is a 500 Jeffery on the left and a 500 AHR on the right. The pictures looks very familiar anyway. The 500 AHR is ~ .150" longer in the neck otherwise they are basically identical. I know I can shoot 500 Jefferys in my rifle without difficulty.







The picture is (l to r) a .458 Win mag case, 416 Rigby with a 350gr Speer, a 500 Jeffery with 600gr Woodleigh PPSP, and a 500 AHR with a 570gr Woodleigh SP.



Sorry no Gibbs, but I hear one is coming soon!

Pedrosab,
Double check, that second round looks more like a 9.3x64 to me, but the picture is a bit shady?????
