Been shooting and reloading my 400H&H since 2011 Pushes a .411 dia projectile to the same velocities as a 416 Rem or Rigby... Pressures fall between the two... Like all reloading components these days times can be tough ..Bullets you can find, Qualcart has been the source for proper stamped brass but they can easily be made for 375H&H brass... like the 300H&H it feeds like a dream | |||

I've got one that Kevin Weaver built on a LH action. It shoots the CEB in a clover leaf with Varget. I also have North Fork, Hammer and Hornady bullets that group well. I'd use nothing but Barnes TSX, but there's still none available. I have made brass fron 375 stuff and was able to buy some properly head stamped Roberson brass before they quit. | |||

Held one at H&H London 2 weeks ago. They said they sold very few. 416s were more popular.

It just never had much appeal to me not anything to offer, and apparently that was the general opinion of the masses. Seems to me it was fitting to those who wanted something that nobody else had. It was a decent enough caliber, we had the .416 Rem and Rigby. My experience with one 400 was filing in a set of iron sights on one with worked up loads.

Instead of creating the 400 H&H and 465 H&H, in my opinion, they should have legitimized the 404-375 H&H wildcat and the 470 Capstick putting their H&H moniker on them Regards, Chuck "There's a saying in prize fighting, everyone's got a plan until they get hit" Michael Douglas "The Ghost And The Darkness" | |||

And if they shortened the neck a tad they could have made it fit an unmodified Mauser. | |||

Wouldn’t we call it a 404 Jeffery short? | |||

If brass is hard to find I have a lot of 300 H&H, all WW I think, I would sell it at a good price. New brass loaded and empty, Id have to check, Ive had several years, never fired.

Nice mate. Good to see the bolt is on the correct side. That looks like a mostly original Zastava, but I assume rebarreled and also a modified bolt handle? | |||
|

I think a Dakota bolt, Timney trigger, Wisner model 70 safety, bedded and crossbolts, NECG iron sights. Yes, rebarreled from a 375 H&H and the barrel band sling swivel. I got it out just now to head to the range and fire form some more brass, (punishing,) and noticed it still had the factory Zastava recoil pad.  No wonder it's punishing. | |||

Some nice specs there. I suspect the whole factory stock is not doing you any favours for a cartridge that I feel would otherwise be decently comfortable to shoot. I have several LH Zastavas, including a 416 Rem, but all have been restocked. | |||

I've got some plastic stock stuff and I guess it's ok, but I would like to have and keep some wood stock stuff. I have a Zastava 6.5 Swede a friend here on AR worked over and sold me, the "remodel he did on the factory stock is quite nice I think. Do you have suggestions? American wood stock makers do some wonderful work but it gets out of my budget quickly. I pummeled myself thru a few fireform rounds earlier today, the rifle cloverleaf's 400grain hornadays. | |||

I did see a 400 H&H rifle in the rack at Hollands shooting grounds in Northwoods when I shot clays there in December 2022, but I did not ask to handle it. | |||

This one I inherited from my father after he passed. Left handed action, built off a Montana 99 (not the best). It was the ACGG application piece for the gunmaker, which got him in. However, I am not left handed...    | |||

Thats a nice looking rifle, despite the Montana action. And I am left handed  | |||

**All of my properly head stamped 400 brass came form Qual Cart.. ** Barnes makes a .411 dia 300gr bullet great for elk ** There are .411 dia 400gr Barnes bullets floating around out there... Barnes was originally going to do all of the prelim SAAMI work but backed out for some reason I have 100 pieces in a bag on a shelf waiting for the right moment | |||
