I've mainly been doing velocity ladders in my 416 lately. Today I tried out three different charge weights. Around 2600 fps still seems to be the sweet spot with the 350 grain mag tips. My newest 9.3x62 has only been loaded with the lighter bullets. Mainly the factory norma 232 gr ecostrike( shoots amazing ), and the 250 gr accubond which I've struggled with in this rifle. Today I loaded the 285 gr PPU RN with 65 gr of big game for 2,457 fps and 66 gr of big game for 2,498 fps. Here are the 416 groups.

Also did a velocity ladder with 400 gr DGX in 3X fired norma brass, and RL15.

75 gr = 2411 fps
75.5 gr = 2419 fps
76 gr = 2450 fps.

I have an unfired T rex 577 if anyone is interested in acquiring it . Absolutely spotless, flawless and well kept . It's rare as it gets . Mouth watering ? Let me know if you feel like making an offer .

I just saw Budsgunshop.com has both the guide gun and the African for $1150. FWIW - I bought both and decided to use the Guide gun - I restocked it in a Bell and Carlson stock and I added the Alaska arms floor plate to add a round. I wanted the shorter barrel as I will use a suppressor. I wont go lower than $1100, but I will ship it and no sales tax.

Let me know if you are interested
