Another reason to consider another gun may be balance. My only issue with the Merkel 140s is that in the smaller calibers, they tend to be a bit muzzle heavy. The barrel contours of a 375 and 500 are pretty much the same. I found the 375 to be poorly balanced for this reason while the 500 was delightful. The 416 should be closer to the 375 in balance than the 500, so at a minimum, I would try before you buy and pay attention to the feel when you shoulder it and swing it from side to side. Dave
