Good day AH!! What a very fine morning it is, here in, Indiana. Me and this awesome lady are heading out for a day of shooting! Wish me luck..

Thanks Phoenix Phil! My No.1 scales out just a touch over 9.8 lbs..thinking about placing some weight in the stock, your thoughts, Sir? Heading to the range

Bump for the weekend, Sunday is coming

I have a never shot nor heard the likes of the .416 Rigby! I recently purchased a Ruger No.1 in this caliber and SUNDAY.. is GUNDAY! Fellas, what can I expect? Can anyone describe what it sounds like? I can imagine this thing is going to get everyone's attention,..ESPECIALLY ME!!

Hello and thank you!!

Hello Mark! This is quite a journey I've set before myself, truly I'm humbled having access to this skilled community. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and knowledge on this subject, it helps me in ways I could never find elsewhere. Surely I'll have many questions along the way!

Hello BB! Yessir, the hunt for brass has begun, among many other necessities needed to be a skilled handloader. I can't thank you enough for your valued input!

Thank you BB416! Yessir, I have looked at this press and I like what I read regarding the Forster co-ax. I'm putting my santa list together so it's researching and more researching..I hope to get this right the first go-round. Thank you again for sharing your thoughts and knowledge!!

Thank you, Labman! I have been gathering some brass here and there, Hornady and Norma. I hear Hornady is good but Norma collectively considered the better of the two? All subjectively speaking, I definitely have a bit of a mountain to climb. Other good news, I've gathered some reloading...

Thank you so much for your help! I've started buying Hornady brass and also have 60 factory Norma rounds, heard Norma brass is the best, annealed necks, etc; wish I could find Norma, nickel dipped?

Hello- I hope this is in the correct place. I'm new to reloading and in need of information for the correct gear, press, etc on the full setup. Any input is appreciated. Best!

What a piece of craftsmanship. Just bought a rifle in .416 Rigby, myself-someone will be oh so lucky; sweet gun!

Very nice, indeed
