458 Win I can appreciate the use of a short, handy rifle in the thick stuff and light weight certainly helps at the end of the day. If tracking wounded game in very close country I would prefer the short handy rifle.

Not only have we experienced an modernisation of rifle and new cartridges but also bullet construction. It was mentioned earlier that the Rigby ability to push the same projectile at greater speeds than th eother 416 is a moot point. I tend to disagree with this when we look at the Woodleigh Hydroshocks. The makers of these clain that the faster they go the better they work and so far, from what I have read this seems to be the case. Yes a 400grain 416 Hydro at 2400fps will drop anything that walks, there and then but at 2550 it would be even more emphatic. Just be mindfull of over penetration.
