    It's a bit like the 8x57.
    The muricans are still scared that someone still has the original 318 cal, the ammo is about 20000psi and 500fps less/slower than the euro stuff.
    The Euro stuff could be classed as +P in that case

    Nothing like a load of buck, just saying. The job sounds awsome.

    Well as a consequence of this thread as I sort out gear for a trip to the West Coast this week, my 1885 45-70 has snuck into the case with my Field's 450 no1 Express

    So its USA vs Britian
    The 450 no1 Express is BP and the 45-70 is nitro, but if I can get into open sight range of any deer I will see how they go ... only for science.
    At this stage I favour the 45-70s chances best, because its the West Coast and the Field's is unlikely to be going anywhere if its wet
