The .475 No. 2 Nitro Express is a British rifle cartridge. One of several rounds (including the .470, .475, and .476 Nitro Express) designed and introduced between 1905 and 1910, after the British Army banned the .450, in India and the Sudan, all with comparable performance, the .475 No. 2 was used in a number of double rifles. In addition, Jeffery chambered a slightly less powerful loading in his rifles. The standard factory load used a 480 gr (31.1 g) slug over 85 gr (5.51 g) of cordite, while Jeffery used a 500 gr (32.4 g) bullet which dropped 0.6 in (15 mm) more at 200 yd (180 m).
