.460 Wby. Mag.
Introduced in 1958. Considered to be the world’s largest, most powerful shoulder-fired cartridge, the .460 shoots a 500 grain bullet at 2,600 fps, delivering an incredible 7,507 foot pounds of muzzle energy. That’s 50 percent more energy than the .458 Winchester. Heavy recoil to be sure, but few hunters who need to stop a charging Rhino or Cape Buffalo complain. Nearly four tons of smashing power makes the .460 the only choice for Africa’s most dangerous game.
.460 Weatherby® Magnum is available in Mark V Deluxe.
20 cartridges per box.
