I started the process to build one 3 years ago. I procured the dies and the action but it hasnt proceeded any further. If only we could buy at auction in the US.

Price reduced to $3600 plus post/transfer.

I bought one earlier this year in a 30-06 and then added a second 243 win barell to the setup. O never thought I'd like hunting with it as I much as I do, and the finish on the rifle is superb. Always draws an audience when it's taken out. Om surprised more people haven't gone down the kiplauf path

Im selling a couple of rifles to make space. This 416 Rigby is a semi custom rifle. Cz550 magnum action, swann barell, necg sights, and bell and carlson stock. Harrison gunsmithing put it all together and did the rust blueing. Load development done and regulated to 100m. Rifle is ready to go...

Rifle sold. Skullkeeper fyi, swan gunsmiths did manufacture the barell and then did all the metalwork to put it together.

Hi all, I have for sale a 350 Rigby project for $1100 posted to your dealer in Australia (except WA). Built on a new zastava magnum action, swan barell and necg sights all blued in a factory zastava stock. The rifle is ready to be used as is, but could really do with a custom stock to finish...

My zg47 in 9.3x62. Mounted with warne qd rings so can still shoot open sights when i want.

Thanks but im in australia

Hello has anyone got any first hand experience on the Hornady SP-RP interlock bullets in dangerous game? .ie. buffalo. I havent come across these until today and with very slim pickings with factory ammunition now in Australia I wanted other opinions on these before I buy some. Rifle would be...

Nice. What did he measure at marius? Ismail

Hello, Has anyone used one of these for their sauer 404? https://www.optics-trade.eu/au/makuick-one-piece-qd-sauer-404-picatinny.html Im just looking for other options to mount a scope to my second 404 barrel but i dont want to pay $1000 AUD for a sauer universal mount. Maybe someone has...

They obviously bought one out in 300 win mag to appeal to those in the US which is most likely their biggest market for the rifles. Probably didnt do in 300 H&H because they are Rigby and didnt want to push the Holland & Holland, which i too btw thought made better sense and wouldve appealed...

I went with the big game 450 rigby ph which is a simgle square bridge with the rigby peep sight for a bit of nostalgia and I love it. My big game 416 is scoped and the 450 therefore suits me for open sight hunting and backup duty. If your ever down brisbane way your more than welcome to have a...

Yes i did consider that as well actually but a shortage of scopes around atm is an issue now. Everything is on backorder with a 3-5 month wait at least.

Hi All, i just wanted to gauge others opinions about my possible scope selection for my Sauer 404 barrel in 375 H&H. Currently my Sauer 404 has a 300 Win Mag barrel which is fitted with a swaro Z5 3.5-18x44. I've got the 375 H&H barrel on the way and together these two calibers will form a...

I agree with Red leg. If you want the mrs to shop she can do some serious damage to your credit card just at the airport. I was on the receiving end after only a 4 hour layover only.:mad:

The phrase "working rifle" is used by many people. What exactly does one classify as a working rifle? Its something i cant get my head around. I tend to treat all my rifles the same, as in i use them all and don't baby them. Thats not too say that i abuse them. I still value them as they still...

Ill speak to my mate in Houston to order it in for me a post it here,

Thank you. I'm in Australia which means I'll have to deal through Winchester Australia. That'll be fun. Six month wait just to get a reply.

hello, I just picked up a cz550 in 300 win mag. The bottom metal is not metal but actually plastic. Does anyone know who makes an after bottom metal for it, as im not a fan of the plastic? Tbh i dont know why cz did this on these rifles. Thanks

I agree it does look odd. Thats what threw me. No idea why its done like that though.

Perfect. Thanks mate.

Can anyone please post some photos of their m98 magnum front sight please. I may be paranoid / or cant remember but when i pulled my 375 out of the safe today i realised the front bead site peice is angled downwards towards the muzzle. Ie. The ivory end is upwards towards tne reciever side. I...

180 grain norma oryx. Awesome on plains games and have used it to rolls a few buffs too over the years.

thanks mate. ive got a cz550 458 win mag which i will use which leaves me a spare complete rifle zkk600 in 30-06 pop up peep curved trigger now . May need to sell it. Although thinking about it the magnum action seems very big for a stalking rifle.

Was the rifle built on a zkk600 or a zkk602 action? I want to build a 350 rigby too and am considering which action will be needed. I wouldve thought the zkk600 might be too short in the mag box.

Hi fellas, Just wondering where on the later model zg47 (1962) bolts is the serial number of the rifle located? I can see them on my earlier year rifles 54, 58, 59 etched on the inside of the bolt handle but my two 62 year rifles i cant seem to find them anywhere on the bolts. Any ideas? Cheers

Hi peter, if you still want the information on the 404 jeffrey from tonys book i can scan and email them to you from work tommorow. Just pm me your email address if you wish. Regards Ismail

Good find mate a very nice rifle, but please do not drill and tap it like many people would be tempted to do.

200 grain oryx for me out of my 300 win mag. Have taken a quite a few cape buffalo, plenty of plains game from duiker to eland, many dozen water buffalo, and is my go to round for red stags during the rut here in qld.

Thanks mate, just as i thought was going to be to short to work with warne qd rings.

Has anyone mounted one of these meoptas on a cz550 magnum action and does it fit? Im curious as i was considering this meopta optimax 1-6 scope or an older leupold vx3 1.25-4.

Easy 9.3x64 I Have used a 458 wm as a backup/follow up rifle in the thickets rifle many times for buffalo and thats what its good for. But as the main hunting rifle i would take the 9.3x64 any day of the week. Your ph can do the backing up. I use my 318 wr, 8x68s or 300 win mag as my "buff...

Lol i figured that. You would be crazy to part with it. Enjoy it mate.

Very very nice. Yours, or up for sale still.

7x57 mauser, 300 win mag and 416 rigby. Covered for ever situation.
