Once talked with Mr. Paul Roberts, then owner of Rigby's. He told me all their 1950s conversions of standard length M98 Mauser actions were coming back to Rigby's sooner or later because of bolt lug set back. IMHO and in Paul Roberts' opening up a standard length action to take the .416 Rigby is one of the less brilliant ideas.
