This case should taper more than a standard magnum 2.5 or 2.6 inch case, since it starts at the diameter of a conventional case's belt, rather than the body. If the .375 H&H has its reliability in part from the taper of the case, this one should be reliable too. If there is any advantage to a beltless case, this case has this second virtue too. I like the .376 Steyr and the .416 Taylor. When is the .416 Ruger going to be introduced? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
