[QUOTE="Brent, post: 21695, member: 99"] I would use a Ruger magnum action in 416 Rigby ($1200.) and order a custom barrel, rent the reamer, chamber, trigger job and be done. EVERYTHING WITH a Nightforce 5.5x22 less than 3000 bucks, and barrel length could maybe go to 34". The barrel tapers to .900" at 5" and .850" at 11" from the action. It also holds 3 rounds under the bolt, feeds even the 416wby case with ease. Fit and finish is twice that of my sons model 70 Win. and many times better than the CZ. It will also handle the 505 Gibbs based wildcats as they become the new rage for LR. [ 01-20-2002: Message edited by: Brent ] [/QUOTE]
