I bought a 416 Rigby a few years ago. I guess I have this dream to go and hunt cape buffalo one of these years and wanted to have a buffalo capable rifle that I am well practiced with when the time comes.
I bought the Rigby just based on everything I could read about the various .4 + bores. I cannot say it is the best big bore but it sure kills bears better than anything else I've used.
You will enjoy the 416 Rigby on buffalo. If you handload, try the 350TTSX Barnes or 330 HV GSCustom at over 2800fps for plains game and a great reach on elk or such. I like the feel of a Rigby round in the hand. It's comforting.
