I also shoot from a standing bench which helps .I put a 60 pound sandbag on top of a milk crate which is high enough for me to shoot standing off of .It even works better shooting my 338 win mag rifles too .
My hs stock on my rem 700 kicks less than any of my other 416s even my model 70 that's 9.5 pounds .I think the recoil goes on waves rather than. A solid jolt as on wooden stocks .I hope this Weatherby shoots as good as my other 416s .It has a Douglas barrel 24 inches .I hope to fix it up right...
I am down to only 4 416 rem mags use to have 8 .I am going to have to put better pads and muzzle break on a few of them so I can shoot them more .I use to shoot 125 to 150 times a day with them but ammo is way to high to even reload in mass quantity. I AM going to Try 375 weathetby brsss necked...
I bought a Weatherby mark v that was a 257 weatherby in a McMillian fiberglass stock that was converted to 416 rem mag .The person that had ot made asked Weatherby about changing it to 416 rem mag .I do wish it was stainless widh though to make it even better .I have had a bunch of 416 rem mags...
I use to shoot my 416 rem mags at least 125 to 150 times a day when I shot them .It was $20 to load a box of 20 with speer 350 grain bullets. I NOW can't handle the recoil like I use to but I bought a couple of 260 rem rifles. I HAVE buckets full of 308 brass and alot of .264 bullets .It's alot...
I. Just bought a bunch of 375 Weatherby notma brass to make into 416 rem mag brass .I HOPE it's WAY better than all the 416 Remington brass loaded through the years it's too thin IT looks like I can just neck the 375 Weatherby brass up to 416 rem mag brass and load it .I thought about...
I take kids hunting on youth hunts alot .I first let them use my 6.5 jap carbine for a while. THEN I finally got a 260 rem in a savage model 10 and it made clover leafs with lapua bullets.The kids and women that shot that rifle loved it .They didn't like the blast a 270 had and were afraid of it...
$200 shipped I was fixing to post it on here just saw you wanted some .It's deprimed and polished. it's federal and rem 12 pcs are nickel. It's the only 7 mm stw brass I have seen in a few years
Would that work for 405 win for a encore barrel ? I probably wouldn't shoot over 350 gr and mostly 210 to 300 grain .I know that's more accurate than the barrels you get for most 405 win .
Those are awesome rifles in 416 Rigby I had ro go with the 416 rem mag because of ammo in Alaska. I just bought 37 pcs of new Norma 416 Rigby brass that would help shoot this beautiful rifle. GOOD luck with your sale just pm if you need brass
It worked with the original scope rings but they would scratch and Mar any scope made today. THEY were the old clip on weaver mounts .I think a one piece mount and Burris signature zee rings would fix it right up .The Busnell scope I have on it won't last long on a 338 .I mainly mounted it to...
Jack O'Conner was the one that his own best friend said he was a total jerk .A friend from Alaska went to Idaho with a friend to meet Elmer keith .They talked and shot many of his guns. ELMER invited them t9 dinner then they talked late into the night and Elmer said why don't yall stay the night...
I don't like or trust anything Hornady makes except their xtp pistol bullets .My ruger 77 338 win mag which shoot clover leafs with Winchester bullets shoots buckshot patterns with Hornady bullets .I have had problems with their dies and brass and ammo. I LIVED in alasks 12 years and no one...
I really liked the 375 win the littlest big bore .I used aa1680 powder to push the 220 grain 2400 fps .I even shot 300 grain fmj bullets as first shot bear loads. There is another one coming the 400 legend super 10mm .I might get one for fun we will see.
I have a mark v 6 lug that was a 257 Weatherby that was remarried into my favorite 416 rem mag .The guy put a Douglas barrel and a McMillian stock on it .I sm about to but either a muzzkebreak or see if I can get a ec tuner made for it .The only thing I don't like on Weatherby v is the safety. I...
It's the scope body that is between the bells that's the problem .I gotta find someone to make a one piece mount .My scope that's on there is 2 feet off st 25 yards with the adjustment all the way over
Send me your phone number .It's two weaver bases they used weaver extended rings the old clamp on type to put the scope on .It had a 3x9 Redfield and I shouldn't have bit I sold it and too late discovered that it waa one of the few scopes that the main body length fit between the rings .I tried...
I need help on my 333 belted mag rifle needs awesome recoil pad and a picney one piece scope rail .I think the scope bases are drilled crooked I can't get a scope to fit between the too far apart rings .I have one scope that fits but this rifle will tear if up a busnell 3x9 x50 fit but I don't...

That was too good to be true .I have two of those stainless ruger 77 in 264 mags and I wanted to buy it .That's about half price or less mine shoot cloverleaf with lapua bullets. one of mine is a paddlesrock which I hated so I changed the stock still super accurate .If you can find one under...
Elmer keith took this 333 okh belted mag to Alaska and shot a huge grizzly .Charlie O'Neal who Made it took to Africa for plains game. I HAVE got to get a one piece scope rail made for it so i can mount regular scopes on it .I sold the 3x9 Redfield thar was on it and it's the only scope with the...
I just had a friend here in Ga who is going to work for Norma at the new ammo plant when it opens .They were asking what calibers did hunters want them to produce I said 405 win .I also tried to get a bunch of hunters to call starline brass to call and ask for it .I had 357 rem max and 444...
I just heard this from a gun dealer today that Norma is going to make their own primers at their new ammo plant in Georgia .This is huge there have been no primers the last 3 year .I hope their ammo brass and primers are awesome. I hope they make the Weatherby cartridges and make them more...
Gary Reeder is out of 405 brass .I found some 3040 Krag brass but I hate to use it in this Teddy Roosevelt model.I am wondering which way is the best to neck up 7x65 brass to .412 caliber that's a long ways up
I was seeing if anyone had any laying around you would be surprised what people have. I HAVE some bullets that Fred Barnes made for Elmer just hate to shoot them up .I need 250 gr or smaller for the .333 I got enough 300 grain bullets

My old ruger 77 in 338 win mag .I hunted with it 35 years and took over 250 heads of big game with it .I took it too Alaska but changed to a Weatherby 338-378 accumark to shoot longer range .I still hunt with both of them though
Oh yes he did he greatly designed many firearms .Bill Ruger always held his ideas high and listened to him to design alot of his guns . He sat around a campfire with a couple of other guys and out came the model 70 .He helped win Chester develop the .338 win mag they changed it to .338 instead...
