W.J. Jeffery & Co. Limited Production Classic Bolt Action .500 Jeffery &.404 Jeffery Rifles

[Creigh]

Right now a bespoke rifle is out of my price range. But I can sure admire the rifles W.J.JEFFERY & Co built. Thank you for sharing what your company offers. Hope to come visit your shop. A 404 is high on my wish list.

It's a great caliber..423 with a smooth cartridge and easy action. I have one, just not one made by these beautiful people at W.J. Jeffery & Co. One can dream I suppose.

You had access to half a dozen eggs?????? LUXURY!!! Me and my 29 siblings lived in a shoebox in the middle of the freeway and knew nothing but starvation and a drunken father who would come home to the shoebox at night and cut us in half with a rusty breadknife, and that was after we were upgraded from living in a rolled up newspaper stuffed into a watertank down at the city dump. We could only DREAM of half a dozen eggs. You live and eat like a king.

Wait - you had a FATHER?

I know you guys are a bespoke shop but have you ever considered a rifle to compete more in the realm of a Rigby Big Game, Mauser 98, Parkwest Arms SD-76 etc?

There seems to be a large demand in that space.

W.J. Jeffery & Co. are pleased to reintroduce a limited production of their classic bolt action .500 Jeffery and .404 Jeffery rifles. Modelled after Jeffery’s original Magnum Mauser rifles of the 1930’s, these classic Big Game rifles are once again made in Birmingham and remain the pre-eminent choice for the pursuit of dangerous game.​

Beautiful guns. One day maybe, it would be worth the cost. 2 days ago I Just looked at some great guns in “Safari Outdoor” trading post South Africa. Great gun shop has a coffee shop inside

I must admit that a .500 Jeffery, built by W. J. Jeffery, at a pricepoint similar to the .416 Rigby Big Game from Rigby, would be a big success. Especially as Rigby currently does not do any +.45CAL rifles in their Big Game line, to my knowledge.

Thanks for your comments. This something we are considering and looking at.

I was hoping the 500 "that's been here" .. may be forgiving on asking price.

It's been touched & licked by so many hands, sorry. "You don't' know where those hands have been!

Looking forward to the result! I hope you can bring some WJ Jeffery features which will be unique to the brand.

An “affordable” bespoke 0.500 rifle would sell like hot cakes.
