I have a 416 Ruger and want to load some 400GRN Barnes TSX. I can't seem to find any published load data for this combo. Any help would be most appreciated.
You can find load data in the Nosler, Hornady and Swift manuals. In this, I'm referring to their load development with their bullets. I began with starting loads and worked up from there. I didn't have a COAL for the .416 Ruger, but I did for the .375 Ruger. In my rifle, Power Pro 2000-MR with the 400-grain TSX proved to be the most accurate. I was shocked when I shot a 3/4" group with the BBS. I hope this helps.
Be careful with loading .416 Barnes based on other loads. Barnes TSX are copper, so they are typically longer than a lead bullet to get the same weight. A lot of TSX loads are compressed, especially in the Ruger case.
Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!
Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx
I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
