Welcome from Georgia, USA!
CZ 550's in .416 Rigby pop up from time to time on gunbroker.com.
I have one.
I love it!
My wife gave it to me 17 years ago as my 40th birthday present. I took a good buffalo and a baboon with it last August in Mozambique. (Both my PH and the assistant PH loved the CZ 550. My PH had one in 458 Lott. The PH in training was waiting on one in .375 H&H )
I was able to find good deals on ammo on gunbroker.
There seems to be a bunch of Hornady haters out there, but my PH told me that he had never seen bad performance on game with it, and it tends to be much cheaper than anything else you will find in the US.
My CZ shot solid and expanding Hornady loads, much more consistently (same point of impact) than any other brand of factory ammo that I experimented with.
My buffalo dropped within 20 yards, when I made an 80-yard heart shot through scattered brush with a DGX.
Feel free to PM me, if you have questions.

If a CZ 550 in .416 Rigby doesn't come along, just buy a new Winchester Model model 70 in .375, .416 Remington or .458 and you will still be just fine.

What a great way to kick off our 2025 hunting season in South Africa.
This beautiful Impala ram was taken at just over 300 yards, took a few steps and toppled over.
We are looking forward to the next week and a half of hunting with our first client of the year.

Do you have any more copies of African Dangerous Game Cartridges, Author: Pierre van der Walt ? I'm looking for one. Thanks for any information, John buzzardhilllabs@hotmail.com
Out of all the different color variations of Impala the black Impala just stands out with its beautiful pitch black hide.
Impala is one of the animals you will see all over Africa.
You can see them in herds of a 100 plus together.
This excellent ram was taken with one of our previous client this past season.
