That will be a serious bullet for the 416 Bee. What is the BC?

I was goint to extrapolate it but you know how that works.

Take a TXS with a similar SD, BC and then the same with the TTSX (and hopefully sporting a BT) and do the same between the 350 TSX and the 416 TTSX in 416. Close enough to get some material to dream about it

So I am guessing about .460. We will know how close I got in 3-4 months I hope!

All I can picture is a potato gun launching potatoes at antelope at amazing distances...... 8)

[FOTIS]

Me too! I have been craving for a decent BC 416 caliber bullet since 2002~~~~ :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

I have done 2987 fps with a regular 350 TSX!

Pop,
I've seen them on a few sites but nobody had them in yet. I've been waiting for em too. I'm using the 300 gr TSX for break in. Have you found a source?

Three hundred fifty grains at the velocities generated by that rifle will be an antelope killing machine.

 

[YoteSmoker]

Great bobcat bullet!

 

[cloverleaf]

Just make sure you get a clear shot at only one goat. That combination could kill two antelope at a time .........in seperate sections!! CL

I like the looks of that 200gr TTSX! That would be a GREAT bullet in the 358 Win I believe! Scotty

 

[DrMike]

Well, Nosler needs to get on the ball and make a 200 grain E-Tip and a 200 grain AB in .358 calibre.

 

[SJB358]

Man, I could not agree more! I would jump up and down if I could get either of those two for the 358. Scotty

and a high BC in 416
