I'd like some candid feedback concerning how the 416 Taylor compares to the 404 Dakota. Nominal performance on paper says they both shoot 400 grain pills at 2400fps. One is .416" and the other .423". Taylor brass cheap and easy to form, Dakota brass has one source and is expensive. However, from what I've read the 404 Dakota has a very good reputation for solid performance at low pressure.

I'd like your feedback on how they compare - all other factors being equal.

The 416 Taylor at 2400 fps sounds "hot" to me, as I've normally seen them reported as delivering around 2150 fps with a 400 gr bullet.

However I do not have one.
