I'm not a stranger to big bore rifles, with a 375H&H and a 458WinMag in my safe, but that Weatherby was just mean...........

Yes, it gave me a headache, a shoulder ache and a sore neck.

I believe it was Carmichel that tells of a PH that used a 460 cut down to 18”. Said it was a real joy to be around when it went off!
