[QUOTE="rbTanzan, post: 996465, member: 53978"] It's hard to believe that a .416" bullet in a relatively lightweight 340 grains could reach a BC of .780! Still, 400 grains at 2600fps is a decent load, 6000ftlbs. Let the RUM reach its own level. There would be no reason to chase Weatherby ballistics, since it isn't a Weatherby and doesn't have Weatherby capacity. Remember, the 375RUM base is basically a 5000-5200ftlb round. Necking up brings advantages, but 6000ftlb would seem a reasonable level increase. [/QUOTE]
