Murfreesboro, TN –-(Ammoland.com)- Barrett is pleased to announce production of our new 416 Barrett ammo.
The new match grade ammo is loaded with a 452 gr MTAC Cutting Edge Bullet which has a much higher ballistic coefficient (G1 .83 / G7 .42) than our previous bullet. We are also proud to announce that the C.I.P., an international organization that sets standards for the safety of firearm testing, has approved it.
The match grade brass is made by RUAG, the prized maker of match 50 BMG brass. This match grade brass has concentric necks with uniform wall thickness which give more consistent neck tension.
Loading was done with Alliant Reloader 50 powder which is known for clean burning and is less sensitive to case capacity.
The RWS primer burns more consistent and aids in bumping down the velocity to 3005 fps.
While combining all of these traits with Barrett standards, a shooter will have sub MOA performance capable of hitting targets well beyond 2500 yards, making it ideal for extreme long range shooting.
The 452 gr MTAC ammo is available in a 10 round box and 80 round cases. In addition to that, Barrett also offers new primed, new unprimed, and once fired brass for purchase on our web store, https://store.barrett.net/
