Re: My .416 Taylor on a mauser

I like my 416 Taylor. I did it in a classic Rigby style of the 1920s.
I have never gotten around to the checkering. (shame on me.......I always have to work on customers guns, and I don't get time to work on mine)
But other than the checkering, I have it all done. I have only the irons on it. My eyes are still pretty good. I hope I never need to scope it, but I can later if I do need to.
It shoots about 2" at 100 over a rest, and the sights calibrate out to 400.

As you use the 416 I think you will find it's all you could ever ask for. That shell does everything I could possible want it to. There are some more powerful, "but there is no fee lunch".

As you use the Taylor I think You will see it covers about 99% of the bases, and if you want something different, it's usually going to be less powerful, not more.
I like the 505 too, but I can't say it's been any more useful to me than my 404 or my 416 Taylor.
I bet you'll fall in love with yours too.
