You need the match to it in the 9.3x62 and eventually the .275 Rigby.I was very tempted to buy it but kinda went over my gun budget while in London
Besides I've allready got one in 9.3x74R.

If I didn't already have the 375 H&H I would seriously think about it. But my next number 1's will likely be a 416 and 275 Rigby.I was very tempted to buy it but kinda went over my gun budget while in London

Saw this for $2100. Lipsey's special Ruger #1 in 9.3x62 at R&M Firearms in El Campo TX. Act quickly if you want it![]()
@Frederik: What do you think, would this make a nice entry level for my brother? Or shall we hold out for something larger?This is it, currently asking 750€, but it has been there for 2 years at least:

Cautionary for someone new to doubles who might not be aware, this is almost surely a 500BPE gun and not a 500NE but still a cool gunAlmost worth buying to hang on your wall at $2700. I have no clue about underhammers.

Well,,,, She has a Rigby Highland Stalker 250th with Grade 9 lumber on the way... in 275 Rigby but with chamber cut to accommodate 175 grain round nose 7x57. And labeled accordingly. Plus has a regular HS in that same clambering, plus a Winchester in and I think 3 RugersOut of my range but definitely priced to sell especially including the two excellent Swaro scopes and pelican case.

I will tell her you said hello.I had a girlfriend named "Underhammer." Man I miss her...
Not with people poo pooing it online to the market lol.Hello friend. Peanut gallery here, feel free to dismiss my armchair quarterbacking.
I'm not a fan of 500/416s because I think they were a brief fad that will not stand the test of time. In turn, that will leave the owner struggling for headstamped brass, all the miserable recoil of a largebore, and less of the efficacy of its parent/s cases.
That being said, my negative opinion of the 500/416 is clearly not as negative as others. I have seen them occasionally sell at auction for a pittance. As in, like $6000 for a k-gun. While I hate them, if they are too cheap to be denied, I'd certainly recommend a shoestring budget friend grab one if its cheap.
But please, please, don't spend good money on a 500/416, its not going to survive the test of time. (the only proven "survivors" of fads are the 450-400 3", the 470NE, and the 500NE).
@Hornedfrogbbq - there’s a good Huntin Story in there somewhere !I had a girlfriend named "Underhammer." Man I miss her...
