    where do you live mate?
    Certainly could have a shot if you are local.
    One of the last couple of firearms that a mate on the coast is looking after for me though.
    Should grab it in the next few weeks all things going ok. Haven't got any 400grainers made up but got some 340's at a choreographed 2500+fps. I had one at 2700 out of half a doz tried, but putting that down to a glitch. rest were mid 2500. Not fully loaded either from memory but did them years ago so could be wrong there.
    the only 400gr I shot was one of 4 from when I bought it but it was definitely "authorative". The 340's pretty snappy too. Somewhere around 4900ft/lbs muzzle energy from my quick calc.
    It starts to make my eyes bleed when you think some of the bigger ones like the 460wby and others can have twice that and actually rupture the cornea after only a few rounds. Sighting them in must be a bitch and take days lol
    Bernie and Beaker like this.
