    I have a remington 700 in 416 remington.
    Wooden stock and from.memory within the first 18 months of them starting, maybe sooner.
    Haven't tried 400gr projectiles, their bread and butter, but it put mid range fire forming loads (375HH cases), with 350gr barnes x point into about 16mm 3 shot groups at a hundy. Guess maybe 2500fps max.
    340gr woodleighs will do well under 1 1/2 " groups with 2 different loads (myself and a mate only 2 years back), between 2600 and 2700fps and change.
    As I bought it, no bedding, no trigger work which is about 2 pound from memory. Must be early mid 90s vintage
