Have any of you used/hunted with this ammo in any calibre..? I bought some in .475 3 1/4 (480 grain softs) and I get an average of 2158fps (658m/s) out of 23" barrels and pretty good regulation at 50 yards....some 5000ft-lbs dead on. Kynoch states 2175fps out of 28" barrels so I guess it computes pretty well.. I get about the same speed with 94 grains of Norma N4 and the same bullet.. Any other experiences..? | ||

I've shot the new production ammo in my .450 no2 and .600. I don't know the load used, but it was accurate and the recoil felt "right' i.e. not too light equating to a lower velocity. I didn't buy it, it was given to me at one of the conventions--Dallas, maybe. However, due to cost, I reload for all of my doubles. Cal PS. I've also shot lots of vintage Kynoch but I've had many hang fires and chronographed velocity was all over the chart. _______________________________ Cal Pappas, Willow, Alaska www.CalPappas.com www.CalPappas.blogspot.com 1994 Zimbabwe 1997 Zimbabwe 1998 Zimbabwe 1999 Zimbabwe 1999 Namibia, Botswana, Zambia--vacation 2000 Australia 2002 South Africa 2003 South Africa 2003 Zimbabwe 2005 South Africa 2005 Zimbabwe 2006 Tanzania 2006 Zimbabwe--vacation 2007 Zimbabwe--vacation 2008 Zimbabwe 2012 Australia 2013 South Africa 2013 Zimbabwe 2013 Australia 2016 Zimbabwe 2017 Zimbabwe 2018 South Africa 2018 Zimbabwe--vacation 2019 South Africa 2019 Botswana 2019 Zimbabwe vacation 2021 South Africa 2021 South Africa (2nd hunt a month later) ______________________________ | |||

Cal, I shot some old Kynoch in my 9,5x57 mannlicher, crazy recoil and bad hangfires... And I hear stories of people who hunt elephant with 60 year old Kynoch...good grief.. | |||

Cal, is the new Kynoch .600 equivalent to the old 110 grain cordite load..? | |||

The RL-15/Norma 203B loads with foam or polyfill for my doubles has a very consistent velocity. I have a PDF copy of Ross' "Reloading the Nitro Express" available to anyone caring to read it.

I believe it is for 100 grains, but it is best to email Kymanco. cal _______________________________ Cal Pappas, Willow, Alaska www.CalPappas.com www.CalPappas.blogspot.com 1994 Zimbabwe 1997 Zimbabwe 1998 Zimbabwe 1999 Zimbabwe 1999 Namibia, Botswana, Zambia--vacation 2000 Australia 2002 South Africa 2003 South Africa 2003 Zimbabwe 2005 South Africa 2005 Zimbabwe 2006 Tanzania 2006 Zimbabwe--vacation 2007 Zimbabwe--vacation 2008 Zimbabwe 2012 Australia 2013 South Africa 2013 Zimbabwe 2013 Australia 2016 Zimbabwe 2017 Zimbabwe 2018 South Africa 2018 Zimbabwe--vacation 2019 South Africa 2019 Botswana 2019 Zimbabwe vacation 2021 South Africa 2021 South Africa (2nd hunt a month later) ______________________________ | |||
