@PARA45, a couple of weeks ago I decided I wanted more coverage for my rifles than provided by just my home owners insurance, since I travel with and ship rifles fairly regularly. My biggest concern was how much of a hassle would it be if I actually had to file a claim for a damaged rifle...

@WoodencrossIII, PM me your mailing info and I’ll be happy to send you a piece of brass that isn’t Hornady.

@Acopperdawg, it just came down to my 416 being more comfortable to shoot in practice. My 458 Win was a little on the lite side and the 416 is a lot easier to feed than the 404Jeffery so I sold those two and just focus on practicing as much as possible with the 416 Rem.

I shot my elephant with a 400 grain Barnes Flat Nosed Solid out of a 416 Rem Shot my hippo with same bullet/grain as my elephant. It was just out of a 404Jeffery instead of a 416 Rem. I have shot 3 buffalo with AFrames. 300 grain/375H&H, 450 grain/458 Win and 400 grain/416 Rem Leopard 300...

Another vote for 3/4 inch plywood behind the sheet rock. Also, a light/neutral color paint on the walls to help the mounts stand out as it were. It’s 22 foot to my ceiling. Ceiling is South Georgia cyprus.

Congrats to you @swashington on an awesome rifle. When you get some time, you’re welcome to come bring it for a test run at my place. Hope all else is well and I am really glad it worked out for you and this rifle.

I have no need for the ammo but I can wholeheartedly endorse @Mark Biggerstaff as a great member to do business with here on AH. I have bought and sold several items with Mark over the years and have always been impressed with how he does business. Deal with confidence if this is ammo you need.

@Mtn_Infantry, I am glad I went when I did. I couldn’t afford to go for what they are getting now.

I use Talley bases and rings on all my Model 70s with great success.

@Mtn_Infantry, who are you doing your sheep/caribou hunt with in the NWT? I did mine in 2021 with Ravens Throat. One of the best hunting experiences of my life. You’re in for an awesome hunt.

Congrats on an awesome hunt. Thanks for taking the time to share it here with us.

Ammo is SPF

Maybe I’m a bit too high on my pricing. Let’s try $100 a box plus shipping or all 4 boxes for $400 and I’ll cover shipping. Thanks for looking.

Rifle is no longer available for sale.
