I totally agree regarding the extra oomph of a 40 calibre. I have used the .416 Taylor on scrub bulls it seems to hit bulls with an immobilising blow inside 50m, those shot with .375 H&H & 9.3x62 in similar circumstances run off...still dead but less emphatically!

I am with you Marrakai! The .416 Taylor is easily handloaded to .416 Rigby & .416 Remington factory specs. The Taylor's advantage of being easily fitted in standard length actions also contributes to its performance due to having extra space that can be used up with freebore. My Taylor was built for me 1992, it is 8.5 pounds without scope & achieves 2400fps with 410gn Woodleighs without any difficulty!
