Personally, I love the .416 caliber--as to the Ruger--everything I have read--in fact just another article this week..the claim is it matches the Remington and Rigby..however on the chronographed loads I have seen that is not the case..close --but does not match..about 100 fps less --maybe a bit more..I realize this is splitting hairs as the barrel is shorter on the Ruger rifle..but Rugers claim is that it does match the other .416's "with the 20" barrel"...more marketing BS..

Having said that, think it would be a dandy firearm..especially chasing buff in the jess or big bears in Alaska..

There are a few guys on this forum I have visited with that have them..and have nothing but good things to say about them..

Good luck with your purchase..
