Taylor:
for all the reasons listed above, and the fact that I've owned one for a couple of decades and killed a lot of big game with it. It's a no-fuss perfect performer on bull buffalo.

M98 action of course, and .338 cases necked up, not .458s necked down. Almost unlimited case life if velocity is kept modest at 2300fps or slightly below.

410gr Woodleigh 'Weldcore' RNSN on buff and big boar, 400gr Taipans for the rest!
