SMc cartridges were developed in an attempt to produce an efficient cartridge combining low recoil, low heat, and high velocity. [4] The 5 mm/35 SMc has produced velocities in excess of 4,800 ft/s (1,500 m/s) shooting a 30-grain (1.9 g) molybdenum disulfide-coated Berger bullet from a 28-inch (71 cm) Pac-Nor barrel, far higher than its commercial counterpart the .204 Ruger.
The Double Tap achieves 2,825 ft/s (861 m/s) and 4,700 ft⋅lb (6,400 J) with a 270-grain Barnes TSX from a 23-inch barrel Ruger 77 African. The .375 Ruger's greater case capacity, and the "short fat" cartridge efficiency lead to increases in the neighborhood of 150 to 200 fps over the .375 H&H Magnum cartridge.
The new cartridge fired a .458 in (11.6 mm) bullet weighing 480 gr (31 g) at a velocity of 2,378 ft/s (725 m/s) from a 25 in (635 mm) barrel. It was named the .450 Rigby in 1994 and put into production in 1995. [ 2 ]
