I have been paying attention to this gun for a little while and wondering what everyone’s thoughts are on the price?
At a minimum maybe someone sees it and it’s a great deal and it gets sold. I just don’t know that much about them.

Be aware that a 400 grain .416 diameter bullet leaving the muzzle at 2300+ FPS is not effective on game when the headstamp on the case says Remington. If the headstamp on the case is .416 Rigby then the same bullet/weight combination is more than capable of anything on the planet. :A Stirring:

There have been a lot of custom rifles made over the years on that same action by some very fine craftsmen. If you price the same build today by a lessor known smith than Paul Jaeger was I think you will see that ain't a bad price. Seriously.

Well said.
 
Paul Jaeger of Jenkintown Pennsylvania built some serious rifles in his day!
 
Nice looking rifle with beautiful wood! I really like the Interarms Whitworths and have two of them. I think this custom rifle with the scope included at the asking price in .416RM is a very good deal. I haven’t seen many rifles in .416 RM for sale recently. I’d be interested too, but I recently bought a CZ .416 Rigby.
 
Another thing, I cannot comprehend that a rifle would leave Paul Jaeger's shop that would not feed and function for what it was designed.
 
If I needed a .416, I'd buy that rifle!
 
Well thankfully somebody bought the rifle so can stop thinking about it. I wonder if someone saw it on here, as it had been for sale for a while.

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks

hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
