Issues with a 416 Remington

I have a Remington 700 in 416 Remington mag and I’m having issues with bolt not wanting to close on the rounds I’ve measured the COAL and the brass trim to length it’s Hornady brass and I’m confounded I haven’t shot the rifle with anything else but only using Barnes ttsx and Hornady solids the bolt is just not wanting to close at times to chamber the round please help me figure it out I’ve even bought a different set of dies some Redding dies to try to see what’s the issue

Thanks

PG Load Choice for 300H&H

PG hunt bringing 2 rifles. The "light" rifle will be a 300H&H. I have two loads, both shoot well. Load 1, 180gr Accubond @2,925fps. Load 2, 175gr Federal Terminal Ascent @2,815fps. Cross over velocity is at 350 yards. 180AB carries 1,800fps to 600 yards. 175 TA carries 1,800fps to 650 yards.

Which load to take? Probably 6 of one, half dozen of the other.

Ammo choice?

What is a good choice round for 7mm prc and 30.06 for plains game.

Stop in for Supper, friend

My two finest rams that I ever produced wouldn’t sell at my price. So being a practical man, rather than give all my years of breeding away for $79/cwt, I slaughtered them, hung them for 10 days and processed the saddle of each for the table and froze the rest for the dogs.

387#’s of mutton. I think they look glorious.

We have a thread for cigars, another for whiskey. Figured I’d invite a crowd and start a thread for what is for dinner tonight.
