This may seem crazy... i know it's a sniper round..but i was browsing through my midway catalog last night and saw some of the number for the .338 lapua...i knew it was a souped up version of the .338 win mag and .338 RUM, but i didn't think it was this impressive... some of the numbers I found:
300 grain bullet @ 2,900fps!!!
I forgot who made the ammo.. but i'm not lying I think it was federal or norma or one of those other non big name brands.
This is INSANE... thats more than a .375 H&H and a smaller bullet, this thing must penetrate like heck..
Think it could suffice for the big 5... i'm not talking about what the laws are... the law says you must use a .375 diameter bullet, but laws aside... I think it would even be better then the bigger rounds, except maybe for stopping
