ken98k Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 well, there's big, and then there's "OW! Chit! my shoulder! my retinas!" that's why i was leaning towards the .404. why the .416, if you don't mind me asking... 5,000lbs energy Only 40,000 cup chamber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
724wd Posted March 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 agreed that the .416 is pretty astounding, but it's really a monster! will the .416 require more box mods? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtyjim Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 i've shot both 404 jeffery and a 416 rigby and if the stock is right and the rifle weighs around 10-12 pounds they aren't that bad. i could shot a 404 all day, but i think the 416 rigby would make better use of your action. we use a standing rest instead of a bench for big bores. a bench will beat you up.
