Tony Sanchez Arino's "Great African Calibers"

[WAB]

He hunted NG43 pretty extensively with Kgori safaris. My friends have many fond tales of their time with him.

 

[Wishfulthinker580]

If I remember correctly he and Wolfgang Romney wildcatted his 500J from a rebated case rim to a rimless case

Correct named the 500 Jeff improved....

Is that the only difference between the two cartridges?

 

[PerH]

Harald Wolf Munitions designed and built the .500,HWM non rebated case design of his.

Is that the only difference between the two cartridges?

Yes but if 500 Jeff built by a competent gunsmith totally not needed...mine is standard and in all the years I have used it never had any issues regarding the rebated rim....it is a myth....proper built 500 Jeff is as reliable as any other....
