One final rodeo, bolt-action or double rifle for my last big bore thumper?

[Rare Breed]

Until the desire for something that starts with a .5 gets too strong

BTW, they make doubles in .577NE And you can load your own ammo.... just sayin'.

such an enabler. I’m still trying to figure out how you talked your wife into the full mount of the rhino!!!

Easy, have it done prior to marriage

It’s probably for the best as large bore calibers start with a 4 but BIG BOY calibers start with a 5…

On the budget of 20,000 Canadian, I would vote for a Rigby Big Game bolt gun!

As has been previously stated for a budget of 20K then get a Rigby BG.

I’ve been looking for a large double for a while. Every thing that I want is way above my budget which is about what yours is $20K AUD.

The other option is go for an R8 PH . For $20K you’ll get 2 thumper barrels and optics for both. And maybe even enough change to buy…..nah there’ll be stuff all change.

Anyway my opinion is worth nothing as I’m a self confessed ( and proud) Blaser and Rigby addict.

Good luck with whatever you get.

My double hasn’t even arrived yet and I’m already looking into my next bolt action….crap.

If only there existed a cartridge between the 458WM and the 500 Jeffery chambered for bolt-action rifles that had readily available factory ammo, 0.50 caliber and produced 500 NE ballistics.

Something in the 11-12lbs range, that would be a sweet spot I think.

I know where you can buy a .450 Rigby on a Vektor action. Beautiful wood and engraving. I’m sure you can get it for 4 figures.
I’m sure he has the components and dies
