What's the correlation between water capacity (stated in the Nosler info as 93gr) and powder capacity? I'm trying to guess how much powder this new cartridge will take so I can get an idea of actual recoil, not some advertising guy's subjective opinion.


I would bet, as the others have said, it is probably based off the 375 Ruger. So it is probably somewhere between the 264WM and 6.5 Weatherby..
