Based on your username I am going to guess you like big bores. Have you considered a .376 Steyr on a Mauser action? Plenty of big bore performance but not what is normally considered " magnum velocity" . It is however a very effective cartridge even without the excessive velocity and resultant wear on the barrel. It is beginning to garner a following with African professionals! (Needless to say a very effective cartridge on all of the largest North American game....and with some savy reloading a great " reduced" load cartridge for smaller American game. Great killing power without all of the bloodshot meat!)

P.S. I may have one of these in my very near future!
