The Sako TRG rifles can be purchased in this caliber, or one of the actions can be rebarreled. Any true magnum Mauser action will do, as will the P14/17 Enfields. The "Safari" sized action from Dakota will work, and I've actually seen one being done on a Rem 700 (it's not finished yet), although I believe that particular combination is more trouble than it's worth. The other one that would be worth considering is the Ruger's either the #1 or the 77 Safari Magnum (the 416 Rigby size). Hope this helps - Dan
