I’ve shot it with 350’s, not that bad. Don’t think 400’s are gonna be that different. I’ve shot .458 Win and 500 NE, neither of which were all that bad. Big push, especially the 500, but all very controllable.

Standing bench is the way to go with big guns, IMO. And I’m not gonna chrono these, just duplicate Swift ammo and shoot. 400’s at 2,350-2,375 fps will do what needs doing. As noted earlier, Bill Hober gave me Swift’s factory load data and I can duplicate it.

Man, am I blessed to have these components. Wow. Without Campfire connections, my bud would be up a creek. And don’t ya know, I’m letting him know. And my wife wonders why I spend time on the Fire.
