Cartridge Battle. 416 Rigby vs 416 Remington. Pick your side.

.416 Rem because I can get a barrel for it that fits my Blaser R8.
 
Rigby I have 2 a Ruger and a CZ, also have a 416 Taylor
 
For me I would get the 416 ruger. One because I am cheap and I already have the 375 ruger and I hand load.
It's not about being cheap. I am in the process of getting a 416 Ruger built. Rebarreled from 375 Ruger.Stock done, just the cosmetics to go ( if the budget allows :)). Oh by the way it's left handed
 
I like it I bought I second hand on a whim, like it enough I'm not parting with it
 
I saw CZ was making it years ago.
I have shot .416 Rigby in hot loads already and that is a lot of gun for me. I know my limits.
I guess if you have brass and can reload a .416 Taylor is a good choice.
 
Use 458 brass and neck it down, not as heavy recoil as the Rigby
