My .460 WBY was pleasant to shoot. * * * That rifle had one of WBY's unique brake systems I have never seen on another rifle. It had a WBY brake and in addition to the brake, it had magna port type slots cut behind the brake.
Okay, ...
... another example of a "range-queen-only" SR.
99% of African PHs and their outfitters prohibit you from bringing rifles with muzzle brakes to their hunting preserves. When hunting dangerous game (DG) nobody wears hearing protection, so neither your PH nor his guides want to incur auditory damage from the concussive sideways blast of your highly woosified braked rifle chambered in a DGR cartridge - like the 460WBY, 416Rigby/Remy, et.al.
C'mon, let's get serious ... If you want to hunt DG in Africa, learn to shoot a DGR without the recoil-crutch of a brake.
Best case scenario for your average hunting bubba-boob is to obtain a .375H&H rifle having a Mauser-based "claw"-extractor that's been professionally accurized and had its action smoothed so as not to jam when you need it to go *bang*.
And remember, in Africa nobody is shooting off the bench. You're shooting from standing, like maybe off-hand braced against a tree or bush, or from improvised field positions, like kneeling.
Like any other shooting discipline, hunting DG with a DGR takes serious work.
Otherwise, save your Ernest-Hemingway-fantasy-hunting for the paper DG targets at your local range. No risk of biting or clawing there - and usually you won't have to stop a charge.
