[QUOTE="strawdog, post: 1016390, member: 7472"] I agree with the write up from the link that its alittle overkill on both ends, the last paragraph especially. First what was it a 15lbs rifle... thats exactly what i want to be lugging around the bush in Africa. 65,000psi for the .577 is pretty standard for Magnum rounds as such(458 Lott =64,200psi +/-). My main negitive is that bigger sometimes is not better or really needed. I think many of the other large African/Safari Calibers are just fine for Dangerous game like Buffalo and Elephant like the 500 Jeffery, 460 Wby 458 Lott ext... I will also say i like strait wall rounds due to the fact that they can be trimmed down for many differant chamberings and the 405 is still a favorite for lion and large cats. I want a rifle i can swing easy for these animals. Just my 2 pennies Strawdog [/QUOTE]
