Was surfin' about with the idea of building a rifle in .416 Taylor when I happened upon the Ruger home page and found that they apparently once produced some rifles in that flavor: http://www.ruger.com/Firearms/SE-H-CalibersRI.html Anybody ever seen one? or was this one of those things that they announced and never produced?

Bob Chatfield-Taylor tried to get Winchester to produce the .416 Taylor. They chambered a couple of them for R&D. Ruger did the same. It never panned out with the bean counters. Ken Waters wrote something about this in his _Pet Loads_ compilation. I think he got one of the Ruger M77 rifles for load development testing, about 1973, IIRC. | |||
