I think a lovely addition to a collection of Rigby's would be a .450 Rigby single square bridge with a bolt aperture....could it be done ? and would I be daring enough to one day order that combination ? as if you forgo the double square bridge an optic is mostly out of the question with out...

Your right it does I think, but not much worse than the 22/250.....I only thought of .220 Swift as I'm trying to think of a varmint cartridge that is the most "classic" to co-inside with a Rigby, I cant think of really classic English Varmint rounds.

That's interesting, a .22 Hi Power I must confess I've not heard of it, I will research it. They "could" reintroduce the slant box for the .220 swift :cool: I reckon they'd sell a truck load of their new model the " Rigby Small Game - Vintage" as people would use this likely much more than...

You think you have an obsolete round, I raise your .300 H&H and give you the .350 Rigby Magnum :LOL: No in all seriousness I'd rather have a .300 H&H than a .300 win mag, I really like the .300 mags. But the .300 H&H would have to be in a traditional style rifle.....would not be "right" in a...

My ideal Battery of Rigby's .275 Rigby Highland Stalker - 140-170 gr bullets .350 Rigby Big Game Light Weight - 225 - 300 gr bullets (Rigby have the 1-12" twist tube, great move to allow it handle heavier bullets) .416 Rigby Big Game Vintage - 300 - 450 gr bullets .500 NE Shikari - 535 - 600...

Managed to bag some goats with my Chapuis UGEX 9.3x74r on a trip to out back NSW a few months back. Longest shot was circa 120 yards, the trijicon RMR does help my old eyes ! Son and I had a great trip .

It would have to be this pic of my son and I after both bagging a Blesbok at last light during our first safari

So given that what is more versatile for a .416 a 1.5-8x42 Stratos or the exos 1-8x24 ? Is there that much difference in low light performance of these two scopes in actual hunting situations ? The exos is dearer The 3-12x50 zenith arrived today, that will be used on the .350...I'll have a...

That material looks really hard to remove engine oil stains from......:D

Awsome rifle must be a pleasure to hunt with that lovely looking set up. Can you please tell us more about it

The Big Game "Modern Vintage" or the Big Game "Hybrid Vintage" will suffice as a name for my .416 impending status symbol/s...plural, as I'll have the "Big Game Lightweight" in .350 Rigby to go with it :cool: Rigby for mine have nailed it....did I add they have a great marketing team and it...

Gee not one post I've ever read of yours on equipment that is not a clunker meets your approval ! I really don't like "clunker" rifles regardless of weather they do the job or not....I've worked hard (as have many here) to get in a position that I don't have to hunt with ugly guns moving...

The same goes for the .416 Rigby excellent Woodleigh bullets in 450gr variety. I believe the .416 is the perfect level of power and recoil, the “shootability” of a .375 and it closes the gap a little on the superior power levels of the various .458’s so aliitle more punch than the .375 but...

Quality Cartridge Company is another. Its critical that Rigby are able to offer some factory ammo in .450. .416 & .350 for mine, and continue to offer .275.

Speer Hotcor .270 cal 150gr My son has taken: 5 x Fallow 1 x Bull Thar 2x Warthog 1x Bless Bock 1 x Wildebeest A stack of ferals/vermin. this bullet at .270 speeds is amazing, it also worked well in my cz550 9.3 when I owned that (270 gr) I also use the 400 gr flats in my 45/70 Chasing...
