These are all 50 (1/2 inch) cartridges and include the 505 Gibbs, 500 Jeffery, and the 500 Nitro Express 3". Matthew breaks down some case specs, potential performance, and the availability of rifles, ammo, and reloading components. This is a step into the true stopping rifles and we hope you enjoy, even if Juan Loco was distracted by his stomach at the end. Cover photo is a 500 NE next to a 17 HMR Thanks for listening!
