[QUOTE="angus-5024, post: 464141, member: 10306"] Liltank, I've often wondered this myself. I checked a couple numbers and I think that with the .416 Wby you can get about 2700-2800fps depending on barrel length with a 400 grain bullet. I looked at RockyMountain Bulltes and they have a 450grian hutning bullet that has a B.C over .9. If the Weatherby could launch that to 2600fps or even 2500fps it would be about 3000ft/lbs energy at 1000 yards. The problem is finding high B.C hunting bullete in either .416 or .458. I look forward to see where this goes. Hopefully JE CUSTOMS chimes in, I think he has a few big ones. [/QUOTE]
