I. Just bought a bunch of 375 Weatherby notma brass to make into 416 rem mag brass .I HOPE it's WAY better than all the 416 Remington brass loaded through the years it's too thin IT looks like I can just neck the 375 Weatherby brass up to 416 rem mag brass and load it .I thought about firefornimg it but 500 pcs is a bit too much and powder and primers are not easy to find especially fed 215 .I am very surprised there are not alot more 375 Weatherby. I KNOW only one friend that has one but it cut the barrel to 22 inches .Hopefully this turns out well and I can shoot my 416 alot more .
 
In the past the 375 Wby gave some pressure issues in the hot weather. Have not heard/read of any issues in the past few years.

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .

I have quite a bit of 458 win mag brass, most of it new. How much are you looking for?
