The .333 Rimless Nitro Express (RNE) is a cartridge developed in May of 1899 by British gun maker James Woodward & Sons. This round was most likely created to compete with other popular express rounds such as the .375 Holland and Holland Magnum but due to its length it also offered greater powder capacity allowing for higher velocities than other cartridges from the same era.<br><br>The .333 RNE is an excellent choice for long range hunting applications or large game animals given its impressive ballistics, including velocities up to 2,400 fps. Its relatively low recoil makes it suitable for use in lighter weight firearms as well, allowing it to be used on medium-sized game such as deer or bear without too much effort.<br><br>
