.338 WM to .416 Ruger?
I have an old tang saftey Ruger in .338WM and a beautiful custom stock I found already inletted for this action. I had a .416Taylor made on one of these actions and it is great. I was thinking about a .416 Ruger?

Is this an easy conversion to do? I assume the action is long enough, but can it be made to feed etc.. or are there issues I should be thinking about?

Don't see why it wouldn't work. Might need some feed rail work to feed the fat cartridge. Length is the same as the 416 Taylor
