475 bullets for lever actions 475 gr solids
Just got in my first batch of .475 cal 475 gr solids in for testing in the 475 turnbull. The great part of this is it meets the SC of .300 that the DG PH's in Africa are really looking for. I am expecting to get 2050 FPS out of them at around 42,000 PSI and this will really put the stomp on ele, buffalo,and any thing else.

Are these what were formerly known as NorthFork designed?
Would you mind listing where they came from as well?
Thank you,
Frank

The 4 on the right are all Barnes either TSX or solids. The 475 grain is a prototype disign that I had Nosler make for me. I need some Nosler bullets to use on a hunt in Australia in July-August this year or buffalo. This will be filmed for the Nosler Magnum hunt show. We still have an opening or two for anyone that might like to join me on the hunt. It is a 10 day hunt for buffalo, oxen and pigs in the NT area out of GOV.
