Length does not matter as I will cut to fit my project. Thanks

Have decided to remove this rifle from a for sale status. Thank you all for your comments and support. It does look good back in the safe.

Reporting possible scammer Broeder. Member since 6/23 with no posts. Asked that I call on PM mail. No post to me.

I hoped there would be interest due to the ceased CZ production and the shutdown of CZ pro shop and AHR no longer doing upgrades on CZ or Brno. The availability of these rifles will become less. The price of a stock rifle has already doubled and even tripled. But then things come to those who...

Choke restriction of no interest . But barrel must be plain no rifling or rib and must be 3”.

Yes, I do want to sell it as my time has come as the old man has grown older. I do have another 375 HH a Kimber Talkeetna plus a real old timer a 1949 Model 70 in 375 that I retired. Could always fall back on that. This rifle probably will not get used and it is far too good a piece, thanks to...

Thank you guys for the support. It truly is a very fine rifle that only Wayne could do.

In the world of today obtaining 2150fps with a 480/500 gr bullet is easier to obtain. That velocity was obtained in 1898 by the 450 NE and really does get the job done if the shooter does theirs. Having said that I use a 458 Lott.

I have never had an issue on my CZs/Brno with Talley 1” qd.

Danner 452 and Boyt gaiters from Midway did a fine job for me

Rifle was purchased from AHR and has : Shortened 24” barrel New barrel band front sight with hood Glass bedded AHR 3 position safety AHR trigger set at 3# Bolt handle straightened and knob filled Barrel band sling swivel mount Holds 5 down in mag with extractor mod’d to accept loose top round...

Might have better luck calling AHR in Corealis Mt. CZ in KC is out of business.Do not know if there is a place of business there today.

You may be causing the problem. Try belling case mouth, as in handgun reloading, and then be aware of how you set the bullet in case mouth before stroking ram into die. The problem may be caused by bullet being on angle as ram is levered into die.

I use H4350 in my 416 Rigby and have shot it quite a bit. Did chrony work early on and vel spread was ok. Never used fillers and I load to app.2375fps. on the ave with 400 gr bullets.

Congratulations and enjoy the moment

Many good memories

Not relevant to the OPs question but as added info I use H4350 in my 416 Rigby.

Sold to 35 Whelen SPF

Both in good condition. Complete. $150 for both plus shipping lower 48. USPS mo or personal check ok. Will hold books until check clears.

Had a Beta Chrony for years ,bit of a hassle but at the time did what I needed. Now use a Labradar and like it. Checked out the Garmin based on this thread and it does have interest but the Labradar does what I need at least for now.

Do not have it in front of me but check Woodleighs manual.

Yes are good source of info.

Yes, they are “shooters”!

Curiosity and availability

I would be more concerned with the glare off the stock getting in my eyes. What a beautiful piece of walnut and the workmanship is beyond words. Wow !

Interesting

Wow, very nice. GLWS

IF Bill is paying low wages it may be He is trying to control cost therefore reflected in the price of Aframes. Higher wages wil mean higher price of bullets and then this forum can judge him on the fact he should have controlled his costs. Over my many years I have seen the folks who do not see...

Was top of the CZ mod shop. IMO

Ditto on the RMR

Yes Mark do hope all goes well with all.

Lots of engraving

Had one similar and it gave good service.

Nice rifle. GLWS

I would rather shoot my 458 Lott then a friends 378 Wby any day.

Do not kill the Rigby yet it has survived 100 years plus and came back twice as strong late in life. A great DG cart. with history of solid performance.

Had a very early Lott back in the day when we were making our Lott brass from fire formed 375hh . Shot several hundred 458 Win. thru it early on never saw any erosion with the bore scope we had a the time.

I have Talley on several big kickers no problems.

Used the 260 Nosler Part. for all up to Buff. Most animals DRT. Great cat bullet!

Good to hear that there are still people out there doing gun work of the quality that is recommended on this site.

Great history. On personal gear. Was issued a Ka Bar USMC myself.

Lovely firearm

Yes, excellent bullet.

Any pics?

Nice find .Good luck with the rifle.

Too many people like this in the business

That’s the true beauty of Africa!

Always recall the 450 NE developed and marketed in 1898 was a 480 gr bullet at around 2125 fps. and it replaced most of the black powder rifles quite effectively. Point is is 30 gr less weight and 150 fps higher vel. off setting the orginal 450 NE. Most will have an opinion.
