jeffeosso450 jeffery number 11
Okay.. I am tired of HH getting all the news for warming up left overs!!
My new round (Ming, can you drawing this one?)is the 450 jeffery number 11... because...
take 460 weatherby, move the shoulder back .025, make the body exactly the same taper as the 465 HH
, leave it necked at 458, get rid of the U G L Y double radious shoulder and add some body taper
reloading 45k
WOW.. a 450 rigby with a belt
of course I won't ever build this one.. but it makes more damn sense than a 465... they SHOULD have gone to 475 and been done with it.

HunterJimJeffe,
You're not listening again!
Holland wanted to re-create the .450/.400 Nitro Express and .465 Nitro Express cartridges in bolt-action rifles, hence we get the .400 H&H and the .465 H&H. These two even use the same bullets as the Nitro Express rounds.

jeffeossohohoho, Silly Jim... kicks are from bigbores!!
Just kidding buddy..
the 458 win mag was SUPPOSED to match the 450 nitro... it didn't but the LOTT does...
so, mine is at least as good as a 450#2, if not a 500/450...
and with a 475, it would match the redoubtable 470 NE...
I KNOW what they are trying to do... I copied it
It's still leftovers in a cassarole
