[QUOTE="TwistedFox, post: 1888636, member: 114059"] The 408 is just now starting to see the devlopment in bullets that the 375 and 416 got several years ago. The big problem is what case do you use to see the advantage of the improvement in bullets well we have that covered in the 400 warlord and the 408 colossus. The warlord was designed as a single feed cheytac cartridge while the colossus was designed for the Pierce 20x action. The 400 warlord has a useable capacity of aprox 170 grains behind the 450 grain badlands bullet in our devlopment we tuned in 4 fps sd's on 5 shots at 3175 fps still supersonic to 3500 yards at at 7000 feet all from a cheytac action. Now the 408 colossus is even bigger 185 grains of useable capacity behind a 450 grain badlands bullet should fall in around 3300+ [ATTACH type="full"]190383[/ATTACH][ATTACH]190383[/ATTACH][ATTACH]190384[/ATTACH][ATTACH]190383[/ATTACH][ATTACH]190384[/ATTACH]plus fps .
