The pressure issues were from the old cordite powders back when these big volume cases were developed if I am remembering it correctly. I would not be overly worried about todays powders and I would not worry at all about hunting with a 416 Rem in Africa. Building a 416 Rigby requires an action that is large enough which adds to the cost. Much easier to find an action suitable for a 416 Remington build, especially if a company is already building 375 H&H's which is the parent case (via the 8mm Rem Mag).Oooh. Reliability. Is that something to worry about in a modern cartridge or just a “one in a million…so you’re saying there’s a chance” kind of thing? Not being a smart ass here I really don’t know?
