Good read, story and info..

Agree with what is stated. think this caliber is one of the best,whether it is a 450/400 or any of the later introduced cartridges such as the .404 or .416 ..

Personally use and have used the .416 caliber on several African hunts..excellent performance on everything shot from tiny antelope to buffalo and elephant..shoots reasonably flat, hits hard and incredible penetration..not much more to be asked of a cartridge..I have several other rifles/calibers available for Africa but always seem to grab one of the .416's ..
