I've had a idea in my head for years and I've been told for years how dum it is. I'm just curious as to how many of you have had the same thoughts. I'd love to have a 40 to 41 caliber rifle that shoots 225 up to 275 grain bullets in the 2600 to 2800 fps range. I've discussed using the 405 winchester and necking up a 375H&H. Problem with that much velocity is u can't use pistol bullets because they will lead the barrel and nobody was making a good rifle bullet for it. I think hornady has a 300 grain bullet and I know they chose 300 grains for a reason. The lighter bullets n this large of caliber has no sd. I have a 416 rigby and I've been satisfied with that but it's a bit hotter than I truly want in a rolling block rifle. Just a thought I've always had so feel free to chime in and tell me how dum it is.
