I have been reading this board for several months now and have gained a wealth of information from this forum.  

Is there anyone who makes/sales an intermediate power load in the 1600-1700fps range using the 405 gran bullet that doesn't cost more than &#3630 for a box of 20.

From my experience the manufactures either offer mild (trapdoor strength) or hot (Buffalo Bore, Garrett) rounds.  Is there an interest in a intermediate load (1600-1700 fps/405gr) for use against large game (i.e. elk/moose)?  If you would like to see an intermediate load developed and offered for sale, what would you recommend?  Please be specific on the type of bullet (hard cast, soft point, etc.)

For those of you that reload what type of intermediate load do you use using the 1600-1700 fps / 405 gr bullet criteria? Please be specific on your componets, charge weight, and accuracy.

In addition, has anyone used the Remington 405gr soft point on elk/moose and what was your experience with it?

Thank you in advance for your input and opinions.

This will take out an elk no problem.Install a pachmayr recoil pad on your gun and it tames the hot loads.These loads are for a modern Marlin 1895 lever gun.Check out Marlins web page under big bore rifles.
