Most magnums, are magnums in name only! An example, a 30-06 Springfield is very comparable to a 375 H&H “Magnum.....when powder capacity to bore diameter is considered. Consequently, very similar ballistics ( muzzle velocity, trajectory, etc.). I’m sure that many similarities could be found between other “standard” cartridges and “magnum” cartridges! memtb
