Specifications and how they perform
Each bullet in this 50 count box is a .422 inch round nose soft nose, offered in 350, 400, and 450 grain weights. The 350 grain gives a bit more velocity for larger plains game, while the 400 and 450 grain options bring the deep, straight penetration that made the 404 Jeffery a trusted stopper. The soft nose opens in a controlled way while the jacket holds the core together through heavy bone. Built by Woodleigh, these projectiles deliver the consistency a dangerous game rifle needs to shoot to point of aim.
About the 404 Jeffery and its lasting influence
The 404 Jeffery arrived in the early 1900s and became a staple of African professional hunters and game departments, prized as a reliable, moderate pressure dangerous game cartridge that simply worked in harsh conditions. Its heavy bullets drove deep and straight, which is exactly the behavior a hunter needs when facing big, determined game. The cartridge left a legacy well beyond its own use, since its capacious case inspired the design of a whole family of modern magnums that followed decades later. Feeding a 404 today with quality, correctly sized components keeps a genuinely historic and effective rifle in service.
Choose the bullet weight that suits your rifle and quarry, then build the load with care. The lighter option offers a bit more velocity for larger plains game, while the heavier choices bring the deep penetration a buffalo requires. Work the charge up in careful increments from reliable data, seat for smooth feeding from a controlled feed action, and apply a firm crimp so recoil does not shift bullets. Confirm function and zero before any hunt, and practice enough that placement stays true. Stored cool and dry and loaded with attention, a 404 Jeffery remains a trusted dangerous game rifle.
Practical use, care, and compatibility
Match the bullet weight to your rifle and quarry, then develop a fresh load in careful increments because these are components. Seat to a length that feeds smoothly from a controlled feed action, apply a firm crimp so recoil does not shift bullets, and confirm function and zero before any hunt.
