[QUOTE="GIJOE, post: 86180, member: 3469"] Hello, I have a nice Winchester M1917 action that I want to build a Big Game rifle with. I would like to have a round that can handle the big bears and also be big enough to take to Africa on a Lion hunt. I was thinking .416 Rigby but I thought I would check with you fellows first to get some experienced takes on the subject. The problem with the .416 Rigby is the long range handicap, I would like something that has the power and long range capability. I thought of the .408 Cheytac and the .50 BMG but thats just not safe in the ole M1917 action if its even possible. I would appreciate any help at all. Thanks [/QUOTE]
