Simply stated: Barrett knows precision. Every year at the annual Athlon Outdoors Rendezvous we bear witness to this company’s mastery of the craft, using big Barrett rifles and ammunition to hammer steel targets more than a mile away. Over and over again. Now a special blend of .416 Barrett Precision Ammunition slings 500-grain Hornady A-Tip Match bullet for serious long-range performance.
.416 Barrett Precision Ammunition Details
“This ammunition has been engineered to meet the needs of long-range precision shooters who demand the highest level of accuracy and performance,” said Bryan James, President of Barrett. “With its unmatched ballistic capabilities, the .416 Barrett is the ultimate solution for those looking to push the boundaries of extreme long-range shooting.”
Barrett designed this load specifically for extreme long-range target engagement. It blends quality components with a massive 500-grain A-Tip match bullet for ballistic performance over extreme ranges. The advanced design produces a low-drag coefficient, allowing users to experience sub-MOA precision engaging targets beyond 2,500 yards.
Editor’s Take:
This round likely holds up at long-range better than you do. We live firmly in the age of the rifleman. More than ever before, rifles, optics and gear break previous performance barriers to effectively stretch the limits of shooting. Ammunition, of course, remains the leading driver of this phenomenon. Rifles shoot better than ever before. And the price for features once only found in custom guns are firmly in most shooters’ price range these days.
But without the amazing increases in ballistic capability from ammunition, long-range precision couldn’t have advanced to the same degree. Barrett remains a leader in this space. Their rifles serve military, law enforcement and civilian long-range shooters. Along the way, they’ve developed a wealth of experience to apply to all things ballistic, including building the perfect long-range loads. We fully expect this .416 Barrett Precision load to produce.
