.416 Ruger

01-31-2009, 21:44

Just rebarreled a .300 RUM 700 Rem. to .416 ruger - used a Shilen #4 SS & did the whole job on my lathe. Cut the barrel to 22" and crowned - will give it a light bead blasting to match with the Remington action. Got a Manson reamer from 4D reamer rentals and she cut a smooth chamber, I think that the reamer was brand new.
Now have find some .416 Ruger dies - Hornady said that they will have them in March.

Seems like a nice project. Oh, yeah, Manson reamers are top notch, I have a collection of them. Redding makes a fine set of dies in the caliber and Graf & Son will have them I think. I also have a set of Hornady new dimension dies for the 375 Ruger I'll sell real cheap.

Is there nothing so sacred on this earth that you aren't willing to kill or die for?
