Re: 400H&H and 465H&H any rifles available yet?
12/05/07 03:41 AM

I am having a 400 H&H rifle built as we speak. The rifle should be finished within the week if the gunsmith delivers (spoke with him last week). The bbl is a Pac-nor stainless match grade (8 groove w/ 1:16 Twist rate) and will finish at 22" with flutes and topped with NEGC sights (Master Piece banded front & MP adj rear sight). The action is a standard Pre-64 model 70 (1948 era). The scope of choice is a Burris EuroDiamond (1.5-6) with Posi-lock (I prefer this scope to my 1.5-5 and 1.75-6 Leupold's. The quick detach rngs/mnts will either be Talleys, Warne or the new Weavers. The dies I have are CH. The bullets I have collected are Swifts (350's & 400's) Hawks (400's) Woodleigh's (400's), Barnes (300's & 400's)and North Forks (360's). The cases I have made are easily made from 375 H&H. However the easiest is to take 458 Lotts and simply resize and load, no fire forming to blow out the case. However, if one uses 375 H&H brass with a .410 pistol bullet with 25 grains of Unique (with filler); then a fun plinking load can be had while forming cases. My intentions are to load the 400 grainers to 2400 fps and use for Brown Bears / Moose. I have two stocks for it; one is synthetic and the other is wood. Although, I am still kicking it around to decide which one to use in Alaska, probably go with the synthetic. I went with the new 400 H&H for several reasons. Easy extraction, brass components easily made, selection of rifle and handgun bullets available and most of all I never owned an H&H caliber gun I did not like. Heck, I might load up some .410 handgun bullets to around 3100 fps and go hawg hunting down in my swamp land.

Now are you do gooders and home wreckers are free to tear-up or suggest your thoughts and expertise as to my dream rifle which I think I will name,"Killer".
