This rifle was built for my wife and has a couple unusual features. First, it is heavy, thanks to a mercury recoil reducer in the stock. Second is the length of pull, which is 12.5". I am comfortable shooting it, but it is short. I still have the original factory stock and will include it in the sale. The rifle began life as a factory .375 H&H and retains the original barrel. American Hunting Rifles performed their premium upgrade, including stock by LeRoy Barry at Canyon Creek Customs. We consulted with LeRoy on the stock configuration, and he installed the recoil reducer, which of course can be removed.
The rifle has never been fielded. My wife went through SAAMI school in Texas with it and shot it off the bench at two hundred yards without a problem. Price includes the Leupold scope in Talley rings. $5500 shipped to your FFL, unless of course you're in Arizona. We could arrange a meeting if you happen to be here. Feel free to PM any questions. I have a large supply of premium factory ammunition that will first be offered to the buyer at a significant discount.

Beautiful! I know I don't need a third 375 H&H. but... so beautiful!! and its an AHR... I must avert my gaze!! GLWS! Quickly before I can't help myself!!
 
I need to amend the description slightly, as my wife reminded me that the rifle has been to Africa. We sent it to AHR to have the metal work done, but he couldn't complete the full upgrade before we left for a Zimbabwe/South Africa hunt. While in Zimbabwe we were attacked by a cow elephant, which I killed with this rifle. That story is posted here on Africa Hunting by WAB. After we returned from Zimbabwe, we sent it back to Wayne for the stock work, and since then the rifle has not been in the field. My apologies. The spec sheet from AHR is also available for interested buyers.
 
I know, it was built for a short person. I just put a slip-on recoil pad on when I want to shoot it, although it fits me OK as is.

Good Afternoon,
How firm are you on your Dakota 416? I am highly interested but looking at a few different guns currently.

Best,
BJ

I have a Chapuis 450-400 double that looks brand new and shoots well, never been hunted from what I can tell. I am willing to part with it as I have a 375 H&H Sodia on it's way from Dorleac & Dorleac. I am looking for $9,250 for it and if you are interested, I am happy to send you some pictures. Regards,
Steve
