416 Ruger Load data anyone :)

[Weatherby2]

Good day folks well I found one and bought it a Ruger Alaskan in 416 Ruger now i'm trying to work up a load. Seeing as theres lack of data for the Round anybody out there have any loads they'd like to share? I'm loading 400gr TSX and 400gr Hornady DGS i'd like to develop a load using H100V if possible but I also have a pound of RL15 and Varget as well as a few others. Thanks in advance Wby2

I believe the newest Hornady manual also has data.

 

[Weatherby2]

Yes it does which is handy I'm gonna try and contact Barnes as well.

There's data on Nosler's site. Not much and only for 400 grain bullets. No H1000. Not seeing any data on the usual sites either. Suggest you buy as much brass as you can for this one.
Gotta Hornady manual?
Steves pages are back. YEAH!!!!!

Brass shouldn't be to bad i can always run some 375 ruger brass through the resizing die

H 1000 is too slow for the cartridge. Varget would be a good choice.

 

[Weatherby2]

How about H100V ?

So Barnes had some now I have something too work off of

Arise, arise...Necro thread

82 grains of Reloader15 with a 350 grain TSX gives me average 2437 fps (6 rounds fired) over the chrono from my Ruger Alaskan.

I load the 300gr TSX at 2650 fps MV using Reloder15 (bullet recovered from a moose) -

Necro thread but I missed it somehow.

82 grains of Reloader15 with a 350 grain TSX gives me average 2437 fps (6 rounds fired) over the chrono from my Ruger Alaskan.

Forgot to add that no pressure signs on this load. I didn't go higher than 82 grains since I was happy at 2437 fps avg with a 350 grain TSX.

Also forgot to add that I worked up to 76 grains of Reloader 15 with a Hornady 400 grain round nose. Ran over my chono at 2250 fps avg.

Anyone know if anyone other than Hornady making brass for the 375 or 416 Ruger yet?
