I like to visualize the differences between these cartridges when they are side by side, especially some of the less common offerings. Let’s see the DG cartridges in your stable.

Pictured above:

375HH - 300 Gr - PPU SP

416 Rigby - 400 Gr - Sako A Frame

458 WinMag - 500 Gr - Norma Solid

500 NE - 570 Gr - Hornady DGS

Barnes TSX 300 grain 375H&H. I also have some handloaded 300 grain Woodleigh Hydros somewhere.

Addition to the picture on #6 :

f.l.t.r.:

9,3x64 Woodleigh 320gr PP SN

11,2x72 Schüler Degol 401gr FMJ

460 Weatherby Magnum Woodleigh 500gr PP SN

12,7x70 Schüler Woodleigh 535gr FMJ

577 Nitro Express Kynoch 750gr FMJ

600 Nitro Express Woodleigh 900gr FMJ

As far as the Kynoch cartridge is concerned, I still have some in stock. I also shot some of them. A big game hunter must have fired Cordite cartridges at some point and smelled the smell of Cordite early in the morning. ...It smells like NC-powder.

Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx
