Well the pressure thing with the .416 Rem. was the brain child of an article in African hunter, and it is BS and has no basis or fact...

The 416 operates at the same pressure level as the 30-06, 270, 308.243,280, 7 mag, 300 Mags, and a host of others, and I defy anyone to dispute this statement..so lets give up all the other calibers along with the 416 Rem, I think not....

If one has pressure problems with a 416 Rem then I suggest that he put too much powder in the damn thing or didn't trim his cases or any of the other dumb things that some reloaders do, regardless of the caliber...

As to the famed African heat, ask anyone from Texas, New Mexico, Arizona how it bothered them...I will take Africa at its worst compared to presidio, Texas or yuma, Ariz..Hmmm, I have hunted there also...

Nope, thats a lame arguement, long live the 416 Rem..but the Rigby is a fine old round, proven over the years and has always been underloaded, but to load it hotter is falacy and not needed, but lets keep our arguement for her in perspective, she needs no justification at the expense of another caliber, in fact she can stand alone on her own two feet, as can the 416 Rem......
