Remington cases, Federal 215 primers, 96 grains of Power Pro Varmint
 
The 300 grain Shock Hammer in the 416 Remington at 3001 FPS will leave a mark that Ajax, Mr Clean and Oxyclean can't get out
 
Some great speed. Knock over about anything you want to hunt I expect. Do you think that pressure is high enough to impact brass life?

I use 400 grain woodleighs at 2400 fps
I might be wrong but I’d suspect the 300 grain bullets May not penetrate much in big animals such as buffalo ???

Bruce, I do not think the pressure is over what it should be. Double Tap loads the 300 grain TSX to 2920 FPS claimed. The Hammer has less bearing surface and once you get up to pressure you will get more speed.

These mono metal bullets penetrates deep despite the difference in SD
@Micheal458 thinks they will blow right through a buffalo

I read an older thread that mentioned you having some 9.3x64 brass. Do you still have some? I am looking for 100 pcs, maybe 200.
A wonderful trip to Hungary with a very special friend !
