Default 416 rigby reload

Alright sometime ago i bought a box of 300gr Barnes tsx for my rigby... I havent got around to loading them with fear of a 300grn bullet flying at 2950fps is going to hurt the shoulder...

Well I just looked up up on the barnes website and i dont see it listed.?? I lent my barnes manual out as well...

I was just wondering if there are any brave souls out there that have reloaded this round and what there thoughts on it are or any other rigby reloads you like..

Want to get the big girl back in action..

I used to put 325's out at over 2800. Never used the 300's. I had a load for 350's at 2800 on the nose too. Recoil is fun when you push the rigby fast.

Sorry couldn't help.

What kind of powder do you have. I have a barnes book and can give you some info. Although the lightest bullet listed is a 350 grn tsx.
