As to the Rigby, if memory serves me correctly, Ruger started offering the Rigby after Remington come out with their own round...soon after you had Ruger offering the Rigby and Weatherby with their own 416 which come out shortly after the Remington as well...




Yes.

Maybe a kneejerk on Ruger's part in hindsight as you say, the action required by the Rigby is a big one.

As for pure practicality regardless of action length, it is hard for me to see how the .416 Remington can be beat.

Having said that, the .416 Ruger looks like a sort-of .40 Adolph Express/Newton and is as such a great cartridge.

What is the mag capacity of .416 Remington vs. Ruger rounds?

The Remington version on a SAKO AV/III should hold 4 rounds like my .375 does. What about the .416 Ruger? Rigby Mausers are 3-in-mag, are they not?
