The groups at 300 yards varied from 2" to 4" at the 300 yard targets.


So now I'm confused. feel free to correct me, because im doing this from memory. 416 rem is a 375 H&H neck'd up to 416. I know they used the 8MM mag case because it supposedly was stronger in the belt area, but in essence its a H&H case. So you are taking a 416 rem/8mm mag case and necking it to 375. Aren't you basically just making a 375 H&H??? Possibly you are changing the shoulder i guess, but wouldn't it be easier to call it a 375 improved. What am I not getting here?

OBTW I've had good luck with Elites but I only use them on my varmint rifles.....nothing larger than a 22-250. For dangerous game rifles i stick with trusted leupolds. Just for my own peace of mind.
