My 416 rem is zeroed at 200 yards with woodleigh 340 gr pp at right at about 2680 fps. Which all I hunt is deer though.

I have used this bullet on deer in a Taylor improved at 2600 fps. It is devastating on whitetail . As far as penetration on a moose or so I’m not sure, it does seem like a pretty soft 416 bullet.

I have a set of their FL sizing dies for a 416 Taylor Improved, and they have been great! They also built me a bushing neck sizing die for the same cartridge when I called them. I would rate them as a top of the line set of dies, very knowledgeable folks to talk too.

I’m also a huge fan of cup and core bullets for whitetail. They just kill fast compared to some of the premium bullets I’ve used on deer.

I had 30/06 rebored to 9.3x62. If it were me I’d choose either 9.3x62, 35 whelen, or 338/06.

It’s still here lol. I carried it hunting a few times this year, but mainly carried my 416 rem.

Both are wonderful calibers. I went 416 because both brothers had 375’s and I wanted to be different [emoji16]. I’ve used both the 416 rem and 416 Taylor improved on whitetail the last few years. I don’t find the 416’s recoil to be much worse than the 375, although 20 plus rounds of load...

I use the 300 tsx on whitetail in 416 Remington, and 416 Taylor improved. Both guns are very accurate with them using IMR 4064 and IMR 4166. They actually expand very well in deer also so far.

If I had extra money to burn I’d be all over that 338/06, but unfortunately I have a lot of medical bills to deal with first. Beautiful rifles and good luck on the sale.

While I’ve never owned a 25 I would like to someday. I can see a 25/06 in my future. I’ve shot several 25/06 and 257 Weatherby on the range. The 25/06 and 270 win to me are the finest whitetail cartridges ever made. Plus I’d love to find a 257 Roberts for my daughter when she gets a little older.

Pretty much sums up the little 6.5 CM. I’ve owned 4 rifles in this caliber. To date this is the only caliber that I’ve had 4 different rifles in and everyone averaged around 1/2 moa with factory loads, yes factory loads. My current target rifle in this caliber shoots well below 1/4” moa with...

Lol thanks! I’m figuring deer hunting is a good time to practice with the big guns [emoji1787]. We are allowed 5 does and 3 bucks per season, so I usually get to try out a bunch of different loads and cartridges on them anyways.

Thanks!

Thanks!
