trb,

As cartridge collector I'm very interrested that you have in Norway plenty of .416 Rem, this round is missing in my collection [Smile] May be we can deal smth.

The .416 Rigby is most common than .416 Rem in France, UK, Germany, Belgium,... Of course there is some .416 rem in these countries (I hope). May be in the top of Europe the .416 Rigby is uncommon, but the market for CZ is huge big country in Europe. Of course Belgium and Norway are peanut for CZ. I'm not sure that in the top of Europe lots of CZ are sold.

In all case the .416 rigby and .416 rem are both great cartridges.

Tks for bearing over with me on this, I have only a few, ten or so, fired cases in .416 Rem, but I�ll be happy to share with you. Will empty cases ever get trough the mail these days? CZ sell a lot of rifles in Norway, and have done so for years. I had a 550 in .375 HH but switched to a Blaser R93 �cause i thought the CZ was way to long and heavy for a .375, but I am thinking about a .458... You say CZ sell a lot of Rigbys in sentral europe, but before they started making the Rigby this round was uncommon in s. europe too, was it not? I believe CZ is responsible for much of the popularity this round have now, so I think its great that they chamber for the Rigby. There are enough .416 Rem rifles out there anyway.
