Description
The Hornady 416 Ruger 400gr DGS load is built for shooters who want more from their .416 Ruger than typical factory ammunition delivers. Hornady loads a 400 grain Dangerous Game Solid to a rated 2400 feet per second, producing about 5117 foot-pounds of energy. The Hornady DGS (Dangerous Game Solid) uses a steel-reinforced jacket and a flat nose to drive deep, straight-line penetration through heavy muscle and bone without deforming.

Buying ammunition by the box from the same production lot keeps velocity and point of impact consistent from one range trip to the next. Keep a record of the load you carry, check your ammunition for dents or loose bullets from time to time, and rotate your carry rounds so the ones in your firearm stay fresh. These simple habits help you get the full performance Hornady builds into every cartridge.
Before you trust any new load, fire enough rounds through your firearm to confirm it feeds, fires and ejects reliably and that the point of impact matches your sights. Full-power loads produce more recoil and muzzle blast than typical range ammo, so practice with the Hornady 416 Ruger 400gr DGS until you are comfortable with it, and store the rest in a cool, dry place in the original box.
