Cutting Edge Bullets .416 400gr Safari Solid – 50 ct box

Cutting Edge Bullets 400gr Safari Solid projectiles in .416 caliber give big bore handloaders a machined solid built for the classic dangerous game magnums, packed 50 to the box. This 400 grain bullet is designed for bolt action rifles as well as double rifles, which lines up perfectly with the great .416 cartridges. If you hunt the largest animals and you want a solid that drives straight and deep, these Cutting Edge Bullets 400gr are engineered for the task. This is a bullet only, not loaded ammunition, and it brings modern machining to a bullet weight that made the .416 famous. The .416 cartridges sit in a sweet spot for dangerous game, hitting hard without the punishing recoil of the very largest bores. A modern solid at the classic weight lets you get the best of that balance on the range and in the field. When you are facing buffalo in thick cover, a bullet that drives straight to the vitals is worth more than anything else in your kit. This machined solid is built to be exactly that bullet.

What these Cutting Edge Bullets 400gr are and who they are for

The Safari Solid is a non expanding bullet designed for maximum penetration on thick skinned, heavy boned game. The design incorporates a 3 plus 1 band configuration for reduced barrel strain, and it carries the 67 percent Meplat BBW#13 nose profile that has proven to give the deepest penetration of any bullet tested to date. In a .416 that flat, wide meplat pairs with a heavy 400 grain bullet to punch straight to the vitals.

These bullets are for the safari hunter and the .416 handloader who wants a dependable solid for buffalo and other dangerous game. When you carry a big bore into thick cover, a purpose built solid like this is exactly what belongs in the magazine. The .416 cartridges built their reputation on 400 grain bullets, and a modern machined version keeps that legacy driving straight and deep.

Specifications woven into your load

The 400 grain weight is the classic bullet weight for the big .416 cartridges, and it gives these Cutting Edge Bullets 400gr the sectional density to drive deep on the largest animals. The banded body trims bearing surface and barrel strain, a welcome trait in a heavy recoiling rifle, while the BBW#13 meplat keeps the wound channel straight and deep. A 50 count box gives you enough to develop and confirm a serious dangerous game load.

Because the meplat profile has tested to give the deepest penetration to date, this .416 solid is built for the ultimate close cover work. Matched to an expanding bullet of the same weight, it lets you build a two load system that prints to the same point of aim, a real advantage on a hunt.

Practical use, care, and compatibility

Develop your load from current .416 data and, because banded solids behave differently than conventional bullets, verify seating depth, feeding, and pressure carefully. Confirm your rifle’s twist stabilizes the bullet and test feeding in your specific action before a hunt. Flawless feeding matters more than the last bit of group size on a dangerous game rifle.

Store the box dry and boxed to protect the machined nose. Pair these with brass, primers, and storage from the rest of our reloading components and gear. Bullets from Cutting Edge Bullets are a component and not a firearm.
