[275r7x57]

One of my Holland/Woodward patent rifles, this one chambered in 500/450. Quite pleasant with 350 gr bullets, pretty snappy with the 480's I'm sure. Cased and in superb original condition.

500/450 is a great forgotten cartridge.

This is my 9.3x74 R I purchased last week. Its a 2011 vintage, and my first No. 1. (I did not kill the rug it's on.)

500/450 is a great forgotten cartridge.

Yes it is, this one proofed for 70 grains of Cordite and a 480 grain bullet. I have shot it with 350 gr bullets and the recoil is very manageable. I'm sure it is quite stout with the 480's. Holland advertised these rifle to regulate with both the 365 and the 480 grain bullets hitting the same spot, the 350 Hornadays regulate to the sights very nicely.
