Mike & 500grains,

What attracted my interest in Empire was their "98 S" action that is smaller than a Magnum Mauser action but larger than a 98 K action. The S size action which Empire says they produce themselves is supposed to be large enough for .375 H&H and .416 Rigby length rounds without cutting the top of the action.

Unfortunately the only reports I've found on the Empire rifles seem to be articles designed to sell the product, and I'm leery of getting a custom gun without some user feedback because I have more than once purchased a custom built piece of junk.

Thank you,

Richard
