Just read an article earlier today stating there were more factory loads available today than ever for the 416 Remington..in fact Federal was coming out with another new load this year..also discussed how Remington has basically dropped the 416 as a caliber offered in any of their guns wiht the exception of the custom shop African Big Game, however Sako still offers one as well as several other manufacturers..

The big bores have made a substantial comeback over the years and the ammo companies want in on the profits of such. Think for the U.S. market the baby booomers have come of age..at or nearing retirement and are spending some of their savings before Barry and co get it in taxes and any othe welfare program they can dream up to keep them in office..
