[QUOTE="rbTanzan, post: 1786826, member: 53978"] Yes. Exactly. That has been my rule of thumb. While I have considered re-chambering a 338WM as a 338 PRC (AKA 338/375Ruger) I have not really considered doing a 416Ruger on a Tikka. The Ruger Hawkeye seems to be a better platform for the 416 Ruger. If one wants a more robust cartridge than Tikka offers, then one should consider a more robust action, along with the extra pound/pound-and-a-half of weight that comes with the package. My wife likes her 270 Tikka and she puts up with a 375 Ruger Hawkeye Alaskan 20" barrel. The 375 Ruger is noticeably heavier, but it is the price we pay. [/QUOTE]
