how far are u trying to shoot? i would think a 416 220 grain bullet would be almost round. i guess they could make the hollow point more hollow to be lighter and still have a respectable coefficent how about sabbots




Don't have a .416 so not a problem for me. Some of the bullet designs are actually solid brass with a hollow point. Plastic pointed tips can be inserted to improve the BC.

How far? Sensible field hunting ranges, not the BS youtube scam ranges designed to sell people stuff. . I regard 300 to 400 yards as long range. 200 to 300 yards can be difficult enough, especially for a big bore. So 200 to 400 yards.
