[QUOTE="merbeau, post: 1276141, member: 38494"] I recently purchased a Ruger 416 African rifle and at this point in time Hornady is the only brass in town. I have read that Hornady brass will 'harden' after perhaps 3 reloads which, if true, will impact performance. My question is does anyone have experience with Hornady brass and would you recommend to anneal the necks after several firings? I have found my rifle likes BLC2 powder with a Barnes 300 grain bullet using load of 82.5 grains. That is about 3 grains below maximum that was evaluated from [url]http://1587510142.rsc.cdn77.org/RRoom/researchsheets/416AfricanAlaskan(Ruger)-LOADDATAKKempa.pdf[/url] - not sure if that makes any difference or not. Thanks Robert [/QUOTE]
