I am seriously thinking about getting a 416 Taylor and am curious about what actual velocities people are getting with safe pressures.

Thread '.416 Taylor Reloading Data'

I recently acquired a Colt Sauer Grand African. The barrel has been changed from the original .458 Win Mag to .416 Taylor. I have seen the post with the Ken Waters data and am using that for 400 gr bullets. I've also read there is a reloading manual published by Woodleigh Bullets that has a fairly good section on .416 Taylor. Unfortunately, it seems the book is out of print and I have not been able to find a copy for sale. If anyone has a copy of that manual and wouldn't mind uploading pictures of the pages with .416 Taylor data, it would be appreciated.

Thanks,

I have no problem getting just a hair over 2400 fps using IMR 4064, shooting a 400gr TSX… no pressure problems at all…
 
I’m actually on a plane headed to South Africa as I type this… I won’t be back stateside until the 29th… I’ll check my logs when I get home and shoot you the information…

I'll take the 375 bullets. I'm not a techie, so I can do USPS money order or Paypal?
