Well I finally got it and went out. This is a new in box Classicmank jap model. I was really surprised at the lack of recoil with the accubreak! My x-378 Wby seemed to kick more. As far as loads I shot the 300 gr Barnes X with H4350 and RL 19.

119 gr H4350 and 300 x=3205 fps...no visible pressure signs at all! group was 1.2"

121 gr RL 19 300 X =3105 fps and .75" group

122 gr RL22 and 350 TSX =2940 fps and 1.25" groups.

Not bad for the first outing. Now....if them 330 gr HV GS Customs will come in!

Sounds like fun. Where did you get it from? I tried to call you on base 2 or 3 weeks ago to see if the deal on your .458 went through but they said you were in the process of moving. Hope you enjoy the .416.
