500 Jeffery Club

It's a 24" McGowan 1 in 10" twist barrel. It shoots real good

Mine is 12.

New build will be 11.5.
 
What is roughly around the average weight of a rifle chambered in 500 Jeffery that is the best compromise between reasonable weight to carry around and reduce recoil?...

Also, barrel length recommendations?
The 500 isn't a play gun....

It kicks, and even considering a suppressor makes me want to puke!

Mine is 11lb, 22.75" barrel

You learn to shoot it...

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

Best,
BJ

What is the minimum you would take.

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
