356 GNR, shown here on the left. On the right
is the standard factory 357 magnum. This cartridge is a necked down 41 magnum
and gives the 357 bullet as much energy as a 44 magnum. Simple to load and no
backing out in the cylinder makes the 356 GNR an excellent revolver cartridge
for medium sized game. A 125 grain jhp will do almost 2100 fps.

GARY REEDER CUSTOM GUNS has what the big game hunter needs for his
Thompson-Center Encore. In 1990, we developed two cartridges based on the full length 348
case that would take any of the biggest game in North America or Africa. These two
cartridges are the 416 GNR, shown on the left with a 416 GNR fireformed case in the
middle, and the 450 GNR on the right. Our 416 GNR will put a 400 grain bullet out of a
15-inch barrel at almost 2000 fps and a 300 grain bullet at over 2150. The muzzle energy
on both these bullets is well over 3000 fpe. Our 450 GNR will also put a 300 grain bullet
out at over 2150 with the 400 grain at 2050. Both of these cartridges will take the
biggest game there is. If you're hunting big game this fall take along plenty of
power, in either our 416 GNR or 450 GNR. Our dies are made by Hornady Custom and all load
data is enclosed. All our 416 and 450 GNR barrels come with our own patented muzzle brake
to bring the recoil down to that of a 44 Magnum revolver.
