[QUOTE="BigDon, post: 1918085, member: 107254"] I would not take the Rigby under any circumstances. I have a couple of them for Africa, mostly. But I would never take one to Alaska. This is a low pressure round designed for reliability in hot environments. Ignition and performance could well be iffy in the cold. It’s one of the main reasons they developed the 416 Remington Magnum. I used a 375 Ruger Mag to great effect on a big black bear in Alberta one year (1 and done). But I’d take a 416 Rem Mag if I were you. [/QUOTE]
