[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 2799385, member: 10755"] I feel the full size based cases on the 416 Rigby case are most desirable as long as you have an action that can handle 4.00” minimum on cartridge length. The Borden Big Foot action is perfect and you can run the 338XC without issue. Personally, I run modified CZ 550 Safari Magnum actions for this using my own wildcats, 338-416 Rigby Improved 45° shoulder and 375-416 Rigby Improved 40° shoulder. If going shorter than 4.00”, then the 300/338NMI is probably the best option. In 30 cal, I had best performance with 230g pills for ELR, 250’s lose too much velocity. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
