[QUOTE="Black Diamond 408, post: 123391, member: 1563"] Wildcat, The 338-416 rigby or improved versions are very nice cartridges, it is basicly the same as a 338-378wby imp case, same powder capacity. The rigby case has one big advantage over the WBY case, no belt to worry about and the brass seems to be better. The 338 Lapua is also based on the 416 Rigby case, only shortened. You can expect velocities around 2900fps in standard length bbls, 300grn bullets. You allready know about the 338-408 guns and what they will do. You can build lighter rifles using the Rigby brass, it dont take the oversized actions and bbls like the 408 class of rifles. Dave [/QUOTE]
