<Buliwyf>Roger,
The Krieghoff website,
www.krieghoff.com or info@ krieghoff.com may be helpful. I have not checked them. Also, the German ammunition company, WR Ammunition Company may have something. These two worked together to develop the .500/.416 N.E. 3 1/4". Ballistics are: Muzzle velocity of 2330 fps; Energy at muzzle 4940 ft/lb; 410 grain bullet.
The Barnes Reloading Manual Number 3 provides case dimensions and loading data for the 500-416.

RogerBuliwyf,
Thanks, looks like a 416 Rigby with a rim.
Will buy Barnes Number 3.
