RE: .460 weatherby for antelope?
Dangerous to apply generalities to specifics, even if trolling for humor.
Probably best to do your homework first.
460 Weatherby
350 gr. BarnesX, 2970 fps
200 yard sight in
1.5 inches high at 100 yards
0.0inches & on at 200
7inches low at 300
21 inches low at 400
================================================== =
270 Win
130 gr Barnes X
3150 fps
1.2 inches high at 100 yards
0.0 inches & on at 200
6 inches low at 300
17 inches low at 400
I think you guys are just ga-ga over the potential recoil if using the 460 without a brake.
I guarantee that the hit with the 460 will be much more entertaining to watch than the hit with the 270.
No big deal between them, one should be able toconnect with either one.
Weatherby rifle will be lighter than a AR-30 in 338 Lapua.
