Federal 500 NE 3"

[matt85]

I'm wondering if any one has tried Federals ammunition in their 500 NE? they offer 3 different loads with three very different bullets. my big question is, do these three loads regulate together?

it would seem like these three loads would have completely different points of impact given how different the bullets are.

thank you

Sounds like you will be ordering some expensive ammo to test out your theory Matt!

lol im not that brave, i was hoping someone had already tried it.

they offer some very nice bullets and i would like to hope they would regulate but i strongly suspect they do not. i emailed Federal when i made this post and got a response back just now reaffirming my suspicions. here is Federal's response to my question:

That is entirely gun dependent, if it is a double rifle it will most likely have to be regulated to a particular load.

Thanks

As you thought Matt!
I shot Pieter's 500 NE Blaser and it had a good thump to it....but the Hornady rounds were dead on!
