I don't own any Weatherby and never have. I have owned and do own a lot of rifles, though.

In my experience the availability of a wide array of bullets in one caliber, such as .458, lends no great advantage. As long as a few good bullets are available in any given caliber the shooter is ok.

I don't know anybody who switches around sampling 20 different bullets in his caliber. He will choose a well-constructed bullet in the weight he wants, develop a load for it, and stick with it. The only impetus to switch is to change bullet weight, ogive form, or to go to a solid, etc.

In the instant debate, there is no doubt that top-quality bullets are available in .416". Whether there are only 5 or 10 available is no reason to shy away from this caliber.

I don't own a .416, by the way.

The same condemnation can be dished up for the 9.3mm bore, but everybody loves it.

In sum, I don't need a zillion choices. I just need a few good choices.

IMHO, with respect for others,
Curl
