    Magnums...

    I got a hankering for something I haven't tried before. Another magnum rifle. So I have a 7mm Remington Magnum, 300 Remington Ultra Magnum and a .416 Rigby. Im considering a .375 H&H or a 458 Win mag. But browsing my normal online gun site I see they have quite a few 338 win mag rifles for good prices. What do?

    Considering what you list, my question is why? The 416 will do anything the .375 H&H or the .458 Win Mag will do for the most part. I've shot the .458 win mag, it was not a plesant experience.

    Did you buy new or used? Have you shot it yet? If so, would you agree with Schuetzenman about it not being a "pleasant experience"?
