May or may not be a “deal”, but there are a handful of Winchester Mod 70 Alaskans chambered in 375 H&H floating around right now. I picked one up on Gunbroker for a price that I felt was reasonable.

Cabela's has a left-handed Sako AV in 375 H&H for $2k. I'm posting a link to it mainly because I'm a Sako fan & LH rifles with a larger magnum-sized action don't pop up every day. Since it was chambered for a classic African cartridge, I thought it was worth a mention:

For anyone in the market for an entry-level 1911, I have been rather impressed with Taurus' improvement in quality over the last several years. I can't speak to this specific model, but the PT1911 and the other recent Taurus models I own (e.g. the TX-22) have been very solid. At this price ($413), it's hard to go wrong:

Taurus PT-1911 45 ACP | Semi-Automatic Handguns | KYGUNCO

Taurus PT-1911 45 ACP 5" 8rd Pistol - Stainless. Semi-automatic handgun from KYGUNCO. Perfect for target shooting and home defense.

No affiliation to the seller, I purchased one he had and he still has two. I “made an offer” of $325 and it auto accepted so it may go even lower.

I hate Nikons BDC circles, but in real world use the eye treats it as a normal heavy crosshair and I just don’t use them for holdovers.

It’s a Monarch 3 but supposedly the same scope as the African just renamed.

I offered $250 and it auto declined, so its somewhere in between 250 and 325

Looks like Winchester is making Model 70 Safari Express in 416 Remington again. Two places have emailed me in stock notifications. I would jump all over it if I hadn’t just bought a Model 70 Alaskan in 375 H&H. Better get them while you can. Hinterland outfitters had it for $1575 but now shows out of stock. Midway is a little more but cheaper that gunbroker will be selling shortly.

I really like mine

While checking out some of my regular rifle searches this morning, I had one item appear that I'm not sure how to evaluate properly. It's a Dakota 76 with a custom hex barrel chambered in 416 Nitro Express for $3,500. Obviously the Dakota 76 is a popular rifle. The barrel style reminded me of the custom rifles made by Champlin Arms. The cartridge it shoots is powerful but an unusual selection. I didn't know if these choices made it unique in an intriguing way or an odd way. I will leave that up to the viewer to decide.

Looks older and doesn’t look like a Dakota made rifle. I don’t know what 416 Nitro Express is supposed to mean, but I’m guessing the undesirable 416 Rem Mag?

My opinion is that it was a Dakota purchased action and then a custom builder cobbled together a rifle on that action.

I’d have to have more pictures to 100% validate my initial opinion.

I can’t find anything in a 416 nitro express. Does anyone more knowledgeable than myself know if it is its own cartridge? Or if it’s just meant to mean the 500/416 nitro? Or is there a rimless 416 nitro? 416 rem mag?

They go quick.

That Dakota sure looks like a CZ or Bauska action to me just chambered in 416 Dakota.

Not sure if it’s a good deal or not, but I was in McBride’s Guns in Austin, Texas this afternoon. They had a Rizzini .500 NE double rifle on consignment for $12K.

…I suppose I should have taken a picture of it for y’all. :/

I would stay away from it. Too light for caliber poor engraving. I have owned one so I know
