The .404 Jeffery is a rifle cartridge designed for hunting large, dangerous game animals, such as the "Big Five" (elephant, rhino, cape buffalo, lion and leopard) of Africa. The cartridge is standardized by the C.I.P. and is also known as .404 Rimless Nitro Express. It was designed in 1905 by London based gunmaker W.J. Jeffery & Co to duplicate the performance of the .450/400 Nitro Express 3-inch in bolt-action rifles. The .404 Jeffery fired a bullet of .422 in (10.72 mm) diameter of either 300 gr (19 g) with a muzzle velocity of 2,600 ft/s (790 m/s) and muzzle energy of 4,500 foot-pounds force (6,100 N⋅m) or 400 gr (26 g) with a muzzle velocity of 2,150 ft/s (660 m/s) and 4,100 foot-pounds force (5,600 N⋅m) of energy. It is very effective on large game and is favored by many hunters of da

  • The .404 Jeffery is a rifle cartridge designed for hunting large, dangerous game animals, such as the "Big Five" (elephant, rhino, cape buffalo, lion and leopard) of Africa. The cartridge is standardized by the C.I.P. and is also known as .404 Rimless Nitro Express. It was designed in 1905 by London based gunmaker W.J. Jeffery & Co to duplicate the performance of the .450/400 Nitro Express 3-inch in bolt-action rifles. The .404 Jeffery fired a bullet of .422 in (10.72 mm) diameter of either 300 gr (19 g) with a muzzle velocity of 2,600 ft/s (790 m/s) and muzzle energy of 4,500 foot-pounds force (6,100 N⋅m) or 400 gr (26 g) with a muzzle velocity of 2,150 ft/s (660 m/s) and 4,100 foot-pounds force (5,600 N⋅m) of energy. It is very effective on large game and is favored by many hunters of dangerous game. The .404 Jeffery was popular with hunters and game wardens in Africa because of its good performance with manageable recoil. By way of comparison, the .416 Rigby and .416 Remington Magnum cartridges fire .416 in (10.57 mm) bullets of 400 gr (26 g) at 2,400 feet per second (730 m/s) with a muzzle energy of approximately 5,000 foot-pounds force (6,800 N⋅m). These cartridges exceed the ballistic performance of the .404 Jeffery but at the price of greater recoil and, in the case of the .416 Rigby, rifles that are more expensive. (en)
  • El .404 Jeffery (.404 Rimless Nitro Express) es un cartucho de rifle, diseñado sin anillo para ser usado en rifles de cerrojo y aplicado a la caza deportiva de animales granes y peligrosos en África y Asia, como los "cinco grandes de África".​ El cartucho fue estandarizado por el C.I.P.​ y diseñado en 1905 por W.J. Jeffery & Co en Londres, con el objetivo de replicar el rendimiento del .450/400 Nitro Express de 3 pulgadas​disparando una bala de .422 pulgadas (10.72 mm) de diámetro y de 300 granos (19 g) a una velocidad de salida de 2,600 pies/s (790 m/s), con una energía cinética de 4,500 libras-pie; o un proyectil de 400 granos (26 g) con una velocidad de salida de 2,150 pies/s (660 m/s) y 4,100 libras-pie de energía; performance que lo volvió muy eficaz y popular entre cazadores en el África. Comparándolo con el .416 Rigby y el .416 Remington Magnum, que usan proyectiles de .416 pulgadas (10.57 mm) con pesos de 400 granos (26 g) que generan velocidades aproximadas de 2,400 pies por segundo (730 m/s) con una energía de morro de aproximadamente 5,000 libras-pie; si bien el .404 Jeffery no logra estos rendimientos pero tampoco genera el retroceso, haciéndolo más fácil de disparar.

  • .404 Jeffery, även känd som 10,75 × 73 mm, är en med mycket brett användningsområde. Användes av många i Afrika under tidigt 1900-tal. Förekommer numera i moderna och anses som en av de bästa patronerna för jakt på storvilt i Afrika. En typisk kula väger 29,2 gram och har en anslagsenergi på 5 029 Joule efter 100 meter. (sv)
