Randy Brooks told me personally years ago the 416 seemed to kill better with the 350gr TSX than with the 400 when he was testing them and he could only surmise it was the difference in velocity. Lastly, Ross Seyfried in his book tells where the most impressive buffalo killer he's ever used was the 416 Weatherby @2700 fps.


I believe Layne Simpson held the 416 Bee in similar regard.


If there's one thing I've become certain of it's that there's too much certainty in the world.
