[QUOTE="dgr416, post: 5015, member: 1208"] I have 3 416 rem mags two remingtons with 22" barrels and a winchester express rifle with a 24" barrel.I am wondering are the Barnes X bullets in 300gr,325gr and 350 gr the best bullets as far as bc and expanding at long distance.I have shot some 1" groups at 200yards with the winchester and speer 350 gr mag tip .This bullet is accurate but is low on bc abot .335.The Barnes are about .5bc.Has any body used these long range on big game such as moose?I use reloader 15.I have gotten 2500 fps with 410 gr woodleigh telephone poles .I have not shot any thing but the 325 gr barnes and I got 2800 fps.Has any body builds a long range .416 yet.My two Remingtons are 7.5lbs without a scope and have hs prec stocks.The kick alot less than the Winchester with wood stocks.I think the max loads for the 300 gr is close to 3000 fps .That is hauling but in that case.I wondered if a 416 ultra mag would be faster or not worth the trouble.Whats the biggest bullet for the ultra mag case can it take a 50bmg bullet?A 50 ultra mag Sendero or a 50 peacemaker weatherby accurmark would be nice.Just wondering [/QUOTE]
