Can briefly report that a 450 grain 0.458” CEB Safari Solid fired from the Ruger Hawkeye African 458 Win Mag at 2400 fps MV breaks the near shoulder of a mid-sized elephant at ~52 yds and exits in a straight line behind the far shoulder. Same performance as the 400 grain 0.423” CEB Safari Solid from a 404 Jeffery at 2500 fps MV.
Hopefully will be able to post details of this tuskless encounter on the Africa forum next week. Details of the 460 G&A’s performance will follow.
