Author Topic: Different weight bullets hitting about the same place. (Read 551 times)

I've seen in print that the 375 H&H magnum shoots bullets of different weights to about the same place. In my experience with 270 and 300 grain bullets it seems to be true but there is only a 30 grain weight difference between them. I also heard this recently about the 416 Rigby from a PH.

Has this been the experience of others? Is there a logical explanation for this? Are there other cartridges blessed with this characteristic?

I have a 416 Rigby, and the 300 gr. Barnes x does not have the same point of impact as my 350 gr. Barnes solids. About 3 inches different.

I believe JJ Hack has commented on this phenomenom as have others.
Not all .375 HH do of course but it seems to be not uncommon as well the .270.
