Bought a used 450-400 K-Gun recently at took it to the range today for the first time. Hornady factory 400gr. DGS solids regulated well if a bit low (~5" at 50 yards). The factory regulation specifies a 400gr. solid but not a brand or velocity. I am planning to handload for it but wanted to see whether anyone had any Cliffs Notes for me before I begin. Planning on trying CEB, Hornady and Woodleigh solids, probably with RL-15 for starters. Appreciate any info. | ||

You might call Krieghoff in PA. With the serial number, they may be able to look it up and see what factory ammunition was used for regulation. Alex Diehl is a good contact there. | |||

I have one; very accurate and no recoil because they use the same barrels for everything and it is muzzle heavy. However, if you fling any 400 grain at 2050-2100 or so, it will shoot. I use only Hornady DGS and DGX. If you don't try to hold it like a bench rest rifle. | |||

Appreciate everyone's comments. Hornady did provide me with some load data and I will use that as a starting point. | |||
