Homemade press

[sdporter]

I built this press for my .416 Barrett. It cost me about $30. It took a lot of hours in the shop, so I would have been money ahead to buy one, but I’m a tight wad...

This load shot the best. 187 grains of US869 and a 416 grain Lehigh Defense projectile. I cut out everything but the four shots..

The 416 Barrett is a BIG BOOMER! Do you know the Velocity of that Load?

I think around 3000 or so. It is a kick in the butt to shoot! It’s a Barrett 99

I think just the opposite. Imagine what kind of kool stuff he would make if he didnt have to be bothered with work and stuff.

Yeah, working a 40 a week job at the hospital, running my HVAC company, and building a shop, doesn’t leave much free time.
