Does anyone know what manufacturers currently offer ammunition for the .450-400 3" Nitro Express? I have been offered a double rifle that was allegedly regulated with Federal ammunition, but I find no reference to this when I do a search on the net. All I can find on the market is Hornady and some obsolete Kynoch. Do any of the other major ammo companies besides Hornady make 450-400 3" ammo?
 
Those are the only two I have seen.

The cartridge is very easy to load for, and regulation ballistics are easily duplicated with currently available components.

Good luck! It is a sweet cartridge. Heading out momentarily to burn some powder in mine!
 
Hornady & I believe Norma. Hornady is very reasonably priced.

I would be interested in it if you pass. Please send me the info on the gun shop if you do not buy it. I have the needed ammo and brass.
Thanks,
Ross
