The various 416 iterations are the best, IMHO, but within the group, the choice is not that simple. I have the most experience with the 416 Remington and the 416 Rigby, the latter in both bolt and DR configuration. The ballistics are all about equal in 'real world' terms, with the Remington cleary offering the best wack on the receiving end balanced on the Newton's law penalty you need to absorb with your shoulder. The 416 Rigby has the classic cartridge factor won by a landslide vote, but more Newton's law penalty but not unbearable. The other end, the 416 Weatherby and the Dakota clone is just too much on the shoulder for whatever, and again very little, real world benefit on the other end. I vote for these two, the Rigby winning on the emotional side of me. Dave
