The .460 shouldn't be shot past 100 yards. It doesten matter if you can shoot it moa at 300 yards when on safari. The best test of a dangerous game rifle like a 460 is how fast and accurately can you make repeated hits on a softball size target at 20-25 yards if something doesn't work out as planned. And the 460 is quite a step up from a 416 rigby. The 460 without a break will produce (depending on load) 100-120 ftlbs of recoil. The 416 would have served you just as well truthfully. But I hope the rifle serves you well.
