I sure wouldn't want to be the first hunter to get his tit in the ringer using the Rem in hot weather and having extraction problems.

I do wonder if anything like this has happened with the 416 Remington. Anyone know of a documented case of a stuck case??...curious...

I think Ray made a good point about smaller and more compact rifles, but still like lower pressures. It is a hard decision with no definitive answer.

You can keep the Weatherbys. I have an early 300 Wby German that I bought new as a young guy. I've tried everything I know how to make it shoot decent groups...all I get are open patterns...about IC...
