A more interesting rifle and ammo by Sir Jerry. He ain't dead !
Notice the high class Bagwell Bowie drawing attention and pointing to the rifle:













That is the elephant-whisperer 500-gr TBSS with 83 grains of AA-2460 for +2350 fps from the 24" JES barrel,
and the buffalo-whisperer 450-gr TSX with same powder charge for a tropical +2400 fps from same rifle belonging to Sir Jerry.
Sir Bob's charge of 84 grains of H335 will do the same.
All loads well under 3.6" COL.
The 450-grain TSX will still be well over 1800 fps considerably past 300 yards.
I consider 1600 fps adequate for expansion with that bullet.
That is surely a 300-yard elk, bison, and eland load.
Good for any bear, buffalo or lion at proper DG range.
