I recently picked up a 416 Rem and I'm wondering if anyone has load info using Big Game with 350gr TSX's. I have some Varget but not a lot. I do have a fair amount of BG so I'm hoping to use it.

Thanks

I would think that Big Game would be a bit slow for best velocity. I have used this load 93 Grains 2000MR under 350 TSX 2715 FPS with excellent results

This is the only load listed by Ramshot for the 416 Rem mag

I am with jwp475, think it is a little slow. You can still use it, but would not expect top velocities.

I settled on Varget at 2600fps for my 350TSX load in my 416.
Swift factory ammo uses 4064 with 400’s.

I use it, too.

I like that “other shooter”, who I assume remains unidentified.

Man pulling the trigger does count.

Ha!

Were those bullets recovered from broad side shots?

I figured it might be a little slow for 350 grainers but figured I'd ask.

Don't have any 2000MR but that looks like a great load. I doubt I can find any whenever I go back to town.

I do have some Varget and R15 so all is not lost but the .416 eats powder fast and I don't have a lot of either.

Thanks for the info guys
