A very low price for such a beauty
It will go fast, really is (to me) the "perfect rifle"
Best of luck

 

[Bapu]

Now that’s a beautiful rifle and a caliber at a modest price.
Unfortunately we can’t import firearms into India or else I would have certainly picked it up. Good luck.

 

[Rare Breed]

Well priced beautiful rifle!

 

[Green Chile]

Now THAT is the perfect rifle for Africa. Totally sorted out and ready to go for 25k and not dropping in value. I will be surprised if it's not sold soon.

Great price on a Rigby Big Game with the upgraded wood and the additional engraving. It's a steal at $25,000 with the scope included. If I didn't already have a Big Game 416 Rigby I would buy it.

The saddest are these: ‘it might have been’ “

Aggressively priced for what it is. GLWS!

Bapu, you will obviously know far more about this matter than I will. But I heard somewhere that member’s of NRAI can import new firearms in any Non Prohibited caliber up to .315 bore ?

Sent some questions to you offline. Interested to hear more about this rifle.

Habib Saheb only renowned shooters can import a “Target model rifle “ but not bigger than 300 magnum.
375,416 etc not possible. That’s the reason why big bores are expensive in India. For eg 375 h&h mag model 70 would comfortably sell for $7500..
