- The .500 Jeffery Rimless is a big-game hunting cartridge developed by Jeffery in the early 1900s. It is designed to be used in bolt-action rifles and is known for its power and accuracy.
The cartridge uses a .510-inch diameter bullet and has a case length of 3.25 inches. It delivers high muzzle energy and velocity, making it suitable for hunting large and dangerous game.
The .500 Jeffery Rimless is a popular choice among African big game hunters, as it is capable of taking down large animals such as elephants, buffalo, and rhinoceroses. However, it is also suitable for hunting other large game such as moose, elk, and bear.
Due to its size and power, the .500 Jeffery Rimless produces significant recoil, which can be challenging to manage for some shooters. Therefore, it is important to use proper shooting techniques and equipment to ensure accuracy and safety.
