Christer, since the ballistics of the .500/.416 seem acceptable to you, and you intend to handload, why not get a nice second-hand English boxlock in .450/.400 for the same money? Or, for a bit more money (and .470 horsepower), a .450, .500/.450 or 450 No. 2? Better rifles and money better spent.

Ah, a fellow traveler on the Road to Tradition.
