    Tough Pack

    I have used one for my son and I. Two trips OS once to NZ, once to South Africa. Three guns all in soft packs, snug as a bug. At some point I'll be trusting the tuffpak to my new impending Rigby bolt guns.

    What do you think of the new Rigby Shikari?

    Rigby is so desireable....its the history and culture that go along with it, I know XX custom builder "may" build something that delivers the same performance, perhaps even better for less, but it does not carry with it the rich history that Rigby, WR and others have. This is a given for the...

    Classic stalking rifles - today

    Will be up there in price with the "Big Game Lightweight" it seems. But if its the kit your going "terminal" with you have to get it right and do it once.....methodology I'm following at the moment, selling a few off, but things are not moving $$ tight for people here in Oz as you are aware.

    Classic stalking rifles - today

    What would Rigby charge to order the Highland stalker barreled action in .275 and make one change, a stock in the traditional stalking format like they have on their London Best I wonder ? I had heard someone mention that Rigby were coming out with traditional London "look" rifle without the...

    Ruger M77 African 35 Wheelen or Winchester M70 375H&H?

    You have a .375 so I voted .35 Whelen.....have my first .35 cal on order now, I cancelled a .375 order as I already own a .416....my thought, if it needed more than .35, well may as well use .416. You have a lovely and "rare" .375 H&H the whelen will be a nice, light trim option.

    I have a pair of the LEMS trailheads....I wore them to Africa, but didnt hunt in them, travelling shoes I suppose. I took a pair of non-gortex Hanwags some of the country in the Eastern Cape was steep and Rocky, glad to have the support of a proper hiking boot.

    Which scope would you prefer on a 375 H&H Bolt for DG and PG -

    I canceled my vote...none of those I think the .375 should be a 1.5-10x42 or the like, its to versatile.

    Rigby would like to know your caliber preference(s) for a Highland Stalker model without iron sights

    Unsure of this round....but was thinking that one day a high class varminting rifle "could" be in their lineup...long range fox rig etc. Did the pre-war hunters varmint as we know it now ?

    Rigby would like to know your caliber preference(s) for a Highland Stalker model without iron sights

    In all seriousness what is the classic varmint cartridge from the pre-war era ? A Rigby "Tiny Ten" classic English Varmint Cartridge; .244 H&H 100gr bullet at 3500 fps .242 Rimless Nitro Express .220 Swift I think the .244 H&H would be a ripper ! Hard to go past the .220 swift, but the .244...

    Rigby will next be looking to chamber the ".350 Legend" (an answer to a question no one asked for mine :D) in Lieu of the .350 Rigby. Or god help us a Tupperware offering in 6.5 Creedmoor :sick:
