    For Sale .416 Taylor- Frank Wells Custom + 40 New Brass

    The owner himself declared that he is selling the gun because he does not have ammo and does not reload! Is that a secret? No! So its said loud and clear that ammo is a weak spot in the life of the 416 Taylor! As a regular africa hunter, I just pointed out the worm in the apple that avaibility...

    For Sale .416 Taylor- Frank Wells Custom + 40 New Brass

    @Mark A Ouellette To Dislike a post which just reminds on basic and common sense, says a lot about You! If You like the 416 Taylor, kiss it, hug it and go crazy with it! Its still a cartridge where right marked brass is hard to get and so no option for the hunter who likes it easy! Buy a 416...

    For Sale .416 Taylor- Frank Wells Custom + 40 New Brass

    I learned allready many times, that some people in here hunt more for challenges than for game! My religion has changed with the years from „head-through-wall“ to „like-it-easy“! Spending endlos time and money searching for scarce reloading components to get Your gun speaking, is in my opinion...

    For Sale .416 Taylor- Frank Wells Custom + 40 New Brass

    Yepp, thats true, BUT You cant take that ammo to Africa!!! You will fail at the first Airport! You may take the gun but Your ammo stays at the Airport and if this isnt worse enough, a significant fee will be due!! What a start for a lifetime hunt?

    The .500/.416 Nitro Express 3-1/4”

    Of course yes, it's a great round. All the little nasty things , which those old english cartridge ladies were carrying with, Krieghoff overdid it and designed a reliable cartridge with lots of brass at the right spots, which can be taken everywhere on anything at anytime! Krieghoff still...

    500/416 Krieghoff

    Dear Big Bore Fans, I still do have those brass blanks, which can be seen developing step by step into a perfect 500/416 cartridge case! Made long time ago by Horneber for Romey! Would make, if mounted and polished, a wonderfull and absolutely unique object in Your hunting room? I bet, nobody...

    The .500/.416 Nitro Express 3-1/4”

    Yeah, something real to look at, never mind owing a double like that! I was wondering since I know about this cartridge, that it wasnt known and used much more for example in the US! Plentyful available 416 bullets in 400 grain out of a low pressure rimmed Shell in a handy quality double with...

    What is it about 404 Jeffery?

    Regarding to 404 vs 416 Ruger: Considering brass and bullet avaibility not forgetting fps … the second price turns quick into first price class!

    Your opinion on selecting a .500 NE 3” or .470 NE?

    Well, You didn't mention what hunts You're planing with this firesticks! 500 NE is the right one for Jumbo hunting from early morning till evening, 470 NE is more the princess and can be used for all sorts of hunting! The real difference is in my opinion the recoil. While the 470 is still a...

    The Poor Man's Take Down Big Game Rifle

    I know why....the PH walks infront of the gun carrier! I heard of more than a few cases, where the PH was shot from the client! I wouldn't accept it!

    The Poor Man's Take Down Big Game Rifle

    Well, I would never carry a gun this way and I would never walk the bush with someone having those habbits! Another thing is, I had the ZKK 602 in 375 H&H for some time and was quiet happy with it! Handling, precision and balance all good for a magnum action rifle from the rack discount priced...
