I am sure this has been beaten to death and asked a hundered times, but I am going Ele hunting next year shooting a .416 Rem. I was going to shoot Barnes RN solids, but this FN killing better business has got me thinking. Please give me a couple of the best bullets options from those who know. Thanks in advance.

I have 370 gr. North Fork FP and Cup-Point solids, as well as softs loaded for my 416 Rem. Mag. at 2460 fps. They all shoot to the same POI in my rifle, and they're extremely accurate. I'll be taking all three loads to Tanzania this season for use on buffalo, etc.........

Lightening,

I think others have said this before but lots of elephants died before all of this flat nosed solid business ever became all the rage. If the Barnes RN work well in your rifle just use it and don't worry. If you do your part I'm sure the elephant won't know the difference.

Regards,

Mark

My .416 Remington took a Elephant with one shoot last year, and it was with "Federal Factory Solids" Big Grin

Barnes has their new flat point, banded, solids also. I've got some for my 375 but I haven't shot them yet.
