At 350 yards, this ammo achieves a 24-inch reduction in vertical drop compared to OEM 450 Bushmaster and other 400 Legend cartridges, ensuring superior flat-shooting accuracy. It also has about 24% less recoil in an 8-pound rifle compared to the 450 Bushmaster (250 grain OEM ammo), delivering a more comfortable and controlled shooting experience. Our innovative design features a 13% larger frontal diameter than the 350 Legend and an 11% increase in expanded bullet diameter. The 165-grain HV bullet has consistently demonstrated unrivaled stopping power and accuracy over the past year, making it an excellent addition to our ammunition offerings. This bullet construction delivers exceptional weight retention, ensuring the projectile maintains its mass even after encountering heavy bone.

    I just finished sighting in my new CVA Scout 400 Legend with the 165 Gr HV bullets. After getting it dialed in, I was shooting a 1" group at 100 yards. Love Bear Creek and will be a customer for a long time.

    Cycles well through the mag of the Savage 110 Trail Hunter. Shot 10 shots at 100 yards, can cover them with a quarter.
