This is really cool, I can't wait to see it.

Through the Australia distributor I have always been given the option of picking the actual piece of wood for any rifle I have ordered, both Big Game & Highland Stalker. Rigby will do custom LOP but at a cost. Rigby will colour case harden anything you want, you can choose only specific parts or...

Go to Rigby, their customer service is outstnading!

Ha! A quality rifle should be out in the field doing work, it doesn't discriminate against the game you put in front of it.

hahaha might just do that one day. One advantage I do have is the amount of land I have access to, I am incredibly fortunate to have exclusive access to a huge amount of agricultural land that I can hunt any time. On average I hunt around 10-20 hours nearly every week and take around 200 pigs a...

Yeah my Big Game PH in 375 is a pussycat. The extra weight in the big magnum mauser actions is a positive IMO.

How does she shoot? Had it out on the range yet?

Second session with the new 9.3, 2 boars out of a big mob late afternoon. Dropped the black and white boar on the spot and then the chaos started with pigs running every where. Shot the black one on the run just before he made it to the sugar cane but the shot was a bit far back, spent the next...

Handloads, 232 grain PP Woodleighs, 62 grains of RL15, Lapua brass and CCI large rifle primers. Averaging 2650fps.

I ordered the rifle Janary 2025 and it landed in Australia around Feb-March this year.

Thanks young fella! I hope you made it back home safe and well.

I've made some lucky shots in my time but this one was a different level of luck. I ranged the distance when I took that photo, 282 yards back to where my shooting position was. 2 head shots with 1 bullet at 282 yards is a new PB for me!

The first range session went well 2 head shots with 1 bullet

I love the Highland Stalker rifes from Rigby, so around 18 months ago I decided to trade in my old 9.3x62 and order a new one with upgrades. As of late 2024-early 2025, Rigby started offering colour case hardened actions as an upgrade for the Highland Stalker, I ordered this one with CCH action...

The 535 grain Woodleighs at between 2250-2300fps have been my go to load for the 500 Jeffery.
