Holder 450 marlin kravet for storviltjakt?,og hvem selger ammo i dette caliberet?.Takknemlig for alle svar.

Ja, det gjør den. Hvem som har ammo til den? Tja sjekk Norma, Jaktdepotet og Jakt&Friluft. De burde ha. Men syns det er utrolig mye som ikke er på lager av ammunisjon i Norge i dag. Så ikke sikkert noen har inne på lager.

Jaktdepotet har 450 Leverevolution.

Min erfaring er at Leverevolution (325grs FTX) er veldig lettekspanderende og bløt. Faktisk så bløt at jeg har problemer med å få utslag på selvanviseren. Interlock (den som det er linket til) gir mye bedre anslag. Har ikke prøvd ferdigrulla interlock men med Leverevolution får jeg rett i overkant av 600m/s.

Hornady produce two loads for the .450 Marlin, the lightest being the 325 grain FTX Leverevolution bullet at an advertised 2225fps in 24” barrels giving on average 2100fps in 24” barreled rifles and around 1800fps in the stubby 18.5” barreled guide gun. This is purely a light to medium weight game bullet although several hunters have used it on relatively large game. The FTX bullet is incredibly devastating at point blank range impact velocities but at normal impact velocities and ranges this bullet is a mild performer and shows no advantage over traditional designs. The BC of the FTX bullet is no better than other .354 caliber flat nose projectiles and penetration must be regarded as poor at point blank ranges with performance increasing as ranges are extended.

 

Hornady’s heaviest load is the 350 grain flat point Interlock at a true 2100fps in 24” barrels and 1800fps in the guide gun. This Hornady bullet is a good allrounder for use on light through to large medium game. It is a fast killer and gives deep penetration along with a useful effective fast killing range. Unfortunately, on large heavy animals, the 350 grain Interlock is prone to suffer jacket core separation and or excessive weight loss. Even on quartering away shots, the Hornady bullet cannot handle the deflective angle of wide flat ribs resulting in severe bullet upset. Hornady do not make a heavy game load and it is doubtful whether they ever will, just as it is doubtful that any other major manufacturer will adopt the .450 into their product lines.
