A-Square Hannibal 416 Rigby Recaliber Idea? Login/Join

I've owned an A-Square 416 Rigby for 7 or 8 years.
With a new barrel and feeding work is it a simple
job to make it into a 550 Magnum for a gunsmith who
has done such a project before?

http://ammoguide.com/?catid=739 says NO GOOD.
But hope springs eternal...

Confused Ammo Guide's computer comparison indicates that 416 Rigby
rim is bigger by a "smidge" than the 550 Magnum/460 Wby rim.
So how can a 416 Rigby CZ work? I take it that you see CZ actions
as superior to P14 and M1917 actions?

i entered the 550 mag info in ammoguide Smiler
the round is designed around the cz550 action.. nearly a drop in, with some feed ramp cleanup.

the rim difference is not a critical difference.. .0025 r

the CZ is car superior to the enfield action, in alll manner

this is a trust me area
