As previously mentioned, one of the best options out there for big bore lever chamberings is the 475 Turnbull, which (if you can find the ammo) can move a 400gr bullet at 2150 fps for a MV of 4105 (very similar to factory 404J ballistics)

Thank you for the positive review. I will add that working with @The35Whelen as a buyer was a fantastic experience - very responsive, easy to work with, great communication - very smooth transaction all around. Thanks!

I know for those who reload, this may be laughable, but for those who do not (such as myself), it is very difficult to find Factory 416 RM ammo under $90 USD/box these days. Thought I would share.

Good day fellow hunters. I'm always on the lookout for factory ammunition price drops/deals. Just came across this steam from Nosler today and purchased 4 boxes myself. Thought others may be interested in having a look...

Thank you all for the great feedback. Seems like the consensus is that Hendershots is a great company with a good product. I also appreciate the other opinions on bullet selection and advice for which rifle(s) to bring. Thanks!

Thank you all for the great feedback so far!

Good day all. Relatively new member here from TX and haven't posted much yet. I have a Ruger No. 1 in 416 RM and have been going back and forth on the feasibility of a 1 rifle safari, for whenever I can make it to Africa. I have a Ruger M77 in 300 WM, which would be fine to take with the 416...

Thank you KansasJake. I've replied to your message

Beautiful firearm. Would you be open to any trades/partial trades?

CRIES of the Savanna Thank you

I have used the elastic sleeves that @BeeMaa is referencing on several of my Ruger No 1 In my experience, they work well; however, I have never had to do a quick follow-up shot on a DG hunt. The one I use is from a USA company called Beartooth Products out of Montana and they are made in the...

I've always thought J.R.R. Tolkien was a brilliant man and, while these quotes are from his books, they were also used in the Hobbit and Lord of the Rings movie trilogies: Faithless is he that says farewell when the road darkens. — The Fellowship of the Ring Not all those who wander are lost...

Beautiful Rifles! I always liked the look of the Ruger no 1 and own two myself: 9.3x74R and 416RM.

I am not certain if they are still in production or could be ordered, but Sako made the 85 Brown Bear in 500J and you were able to find them betweein $2k-3k USD. From what I have read they were solid rifles, but I have no hands-on experience of my own.

TOBY, thanks for the first hand account. I always find the most value from someone who has used a product; needless to say I will be giving that a second thought if I end up going the route of reflex sight. Thanks again for the info - No doubt trijicon makes rock solid products.

thanks for all the action on the listing, gentlemen. I decided to include the serial number on the gun and box for anyone interested in this information:

I noticed you mentioned waterfoul in mexico... Hard to beat Argentina for wingshooting (best dove hunting in the world). Additionally they have great fishing and big game (axis, blackbuck, and apparently boast the third largest pere david deer population in the world). Not to mention world...

Thanks for the reply Two Barrels. Yes everything is still available. I even found a 7th box of brass in the gun closet which i will throw in for no additional cost:

I guess ill just have to get an R8 with an RMR then lol, b/c that setup looks great TOBY! I particularly like the QD function and your confirmation that it holds zero when taken off/put back on. Do let us know how it holds up to the recoil. Should be a great DG Combo!

Thanks for the reply. I have checked the Trijicon website and done some basic research online and cant seem to find any RMR mount for the Ruger No 1 (at least not made by Trijicon). Best I have been able to find, as far as optics manufactures' mounts, is the Burris Fastfire reflex site mount...

Very Nice! I would like to find a similar setup for my Ruger No. 1 in 416RM, but all ive found thus far is a burris fastfire mount. Great looking setup you have there!

**I meant to say highs of 70-75F in southern Colorado for early Elk, not 80-85F

Sorry, just got around to checking messages this morning. I replied to your PM. Thanks.

Thanks gents for the comments. Just commenting to bump this post/thread. I'm not desperate to sell, but would be open to any reasonable offers. As stated, I do have a 300WM and a 416RM, as well as a 9.3x62, so the 9.3x74R is on the chopping block as I downsize my collection. Please let me...

Up for sale is my Ruger No. 1 in 9.3x74R with extras. I bought this rifle and intended to use it on my first trip to Africa for a plains game safari hunt in 2024; however, with recent family news I have decided to postpone my trip for the time being and list the rifle for sale as I already have...

about 1 hour for public land. 5 hours for my deer lease. I also live in a metroplex.

I go the cheaper route for socks and it hasn't let me down. From hunting early season elk in southern Colorado at temps of 80-85F to hunting hogs in the dead heat of TX late spring and summer (100F), standard moisture wicking work socks have done the trick. You can get these socks online or at...

I own both a 7 RM and a 300 WM and while I really enjoy the 7mm Rem Mag for wt deer hunting here in Texas, the 300WM is more versatile and having a 270 in your collection as well pretty much makes the 7mm RM obsolete imo. If it has sentimental value or is a really nice firearm that you would...
