Big cartridge (almost 4" COAL). About as powerful as the 378 Weatherby (5,700 ft/lbs of energy), so yes, it is powerful. Effective? Effective on/for what? Killing elephants? Sure. Nothing on the N or S American continents needs that much to stop it. The only ones I have worked on were long range rifles, it really excels at that (heavy, high BC bullets at high velocity).
