The .460 Weatherby Magnum is the most powerful commercially produced rifle cartridge in a standard bolt action, pushing a 500-grain bullet at 2,700 fps for over 8,095 ft-lbs of muzzle energy. Roy Weatherby designed it as the definitive elephant cartridge. Recoil is described as violent even for experienced dangerous-game hunters, and the rifle ships with an integral muzzle brake on most configurations.
