    Were the Ruger RSM and CZ 550 Safari rifles the two most significant contributors to the 416 Rigby's recent popularity?

    I think there is a small dedicated market for this caliber 416R , and the folks that are loyal to it as I am wont be changing their mind any time soon.

    Opinions on the 6.5 PRC

    Where to next?

    I agree with Bob here, you could add a caribou in a moose hunt in most of Northern BC, they can often be found in the same area. One up high and one in the lakes. Pat
