.416 rifle with rimmed case
#225465 - 18/02/13 04:59 AM

I have had for a while .416 barrel in spare and thought building something interesting on it. Yesterday I found this article and now it seems that I´ll build that caliber in P14 Enfield or older british Enfield in Lee Enfield style. What do you think ?

Interesting ! Someone had been re-invented the 40/65 or 40/70 cartridges .

Could be very near of those but I think .303 shells are much easier and cheaper to find here in europe. And fitting this wildcat ammo to those .303 caliber rifle actions could be quite easy too.
