If it werent for that I could have bought both Toby's rifles and had enough left over to get my hair blow dried! Ha!

I'm sure you could bring at least one? Have it chambered in .458WM so it won't be a military cartridge. Just claim it as a "curio/relic" rifle on the 4457? Oh, and OF COURSE, they had to be BOTH Winchesters. I'm jealous!

I’ve owned three or four Ruger number ones in 375 H&H. have kept a 450/400 longer than any of them. They are easier to carry around, because they are not as muzzle heavy and a smidge lighter overall. That is if they have the lighter of the two barrel contours, which this one does. It’s not a car axle like the 458. It’s a much handy rifle to carry. And believe it or not, the recoil is a little more pleasant. Less snappy. I have one of the 300 H&H rifles as well. Those two rifles, along with a 7 x 57 RSI are the three rifles I will never sell. They are all accurate, but especially the 7 x 57 and 300 H&H. I’ve hunted with that rifle in both New Zealand and Africa. And with one of these enriches the experience.

Thats what it says on my passport, "curio/relic"!

I just bought ANOTHER Blaser R8 Professional with 7mm Rem Mag, and 375 H&H barrel this week. So I need to make a little room in the safe!

Ahhhh...the plot thickens. Back to Blaser and the Dark Side for you.

Well at least a Jaeger Safari...

@TOBY458 why don’t you bring that 450/400 to zim

@TOBY458 why don’t you bring that 450/400 to zim

I'm bringing a 416 or 458 for Elephant, Hippo and Buffalo, and a 375 for a backup. Would prefer a repeater for everything I'm hunting.

 

[TOBY458]

Toby, what happened? You were
Very excited about these guns six months ago!

It's Safari time! May up my tuskless ele to a bull.....

 

[MRBlack]

Would you sell the 450/400 ammo and brass separate?

I would prefer to keep it with the rifle. But you can PM me an offer. I actually sold 100 rounds today to an AH member.

Who has hunted a buff or an ele with a Ruger No1? Like a bit of an exclusive club. I know of myself and @RIVER MAN and a few others here on AH whom I cant remember. Any others? Oh and Brittany Boddington and Craig.

Welcome to the No 1 300 H&H club Krish!

Thank you. Since I had lot of 300 hh brass I thought I will get this one. I seen you sold a very pretty one few years ago for 800. Do you still have a 300 hh. Did you ever get that Lathe.

[AZDAVE]

Good job @krish you beat me to the 300.

 

[degoins]

Kevin,
My son and both killed buffaloes in Zim in 2004 with a No. 1 in .405 using my hand loads with hard cast bullets. I couldn't find any real solids at the time so that's what we used. They worked ok. Never felt handicapped at all with the No. 1. But I'd already been hunting with single shots for years.

 

[degoins]

Oh and open sights. The NEGC combo that Toby has on that .450/400. Worked great.

 

[PARA45]

Good job Krish! Great looking rifle! If I wasn't going on Safari this year, I would have called Toby.
