I had a few sticks of formed but not fired QC brass, seated in some FED-215's, loaded 68gr CFE-223 under all 400gr bullets, sent Riflecrank a pic, maybe he can post it after while.

Bullets in pic left to right are:

400gr ABW bonded Kodiak
400gr Swift A Frame
400gr Nosler Partition
400gr Woodleigh Weldcore
400gr Woodleigh Solid
400gr CEB BBW#13 Solid

Some if not most of these bullets are not directly out there for purchase from online dealers right now, all but the 400gr [Thanks Riflecrank] partition can be had, the rest are out there, a man just has to watch for them, the 400gr BBW#13 solid was loaded at 3.350" COL because of length, it still ran fine through my rifle, that said, if CEB makes a 350 grainer it would indeed be perfect and more than one would ever need from a 40 cal Solid.
