Beautiful. I have a plain Jane HS in 9.3x62 and love it. I’m afraid you may regret parting with this one!
 
Did you buy it from JD Outfitters in OKC?
@Wishfulthinker580 - Hello,
Jerry @ JD Outfitters is a close friend of mine, he helped me design this rifle and then he ordered it for me. Unfortunately with all the custom work we did, Rigby didn't get it completed and to us in time for my trip. Jerry @ JD Outfitters has it listed for me as well. its a terrific gun, I just didn't need it once it arrived.
 
Gentleman, i spoke to Jerry myself. Paul is a legit seller, therefore buy with confidence.

@PaulB youbhave a very fine rifle sir. Good luck with the sell.

I thought I had seen it. It is a beautiful rifle. GLWS

Nobody needs a rifle like this any more than they need a Rembrandt. They want one because they have impeccable taste and an eye for true beauty.

You sir have an exquisite rifle, and I fear that if you sell it, you will regret it to the day you die.
 
Beautiful rifle and seller is great to deal with. Buy with confidence
 
No offense or taking away from this beautiful rifle but why in the hell would Rigby not take the effort to time the screws on this thing! I would not part with this rifle Paul, I think everyone here agrees that you will kick yourself down the road!
 
How come you don't need it now?....9.3x62 is always needed.... ;) :D Beers:
Spike, You are probably correct, I might regret this someday. However, my gun collection has gotten OUT OF CONTROL as of late. I cant seem to lay of the 350 Rigby's and 300 H&H's! While I might regret this in the futurey, I am hoping that if I sell a gun or 2, my wife might let me sleep in my own bed in the in the present?

I've heard of a legendary saying.. "Happy wife.. Happy life!!" I'm hoping to get a big caliber someday such as a 416 Rigby or 458 Lott..

Hi Jon,
I saw your post for the .500 NE cases. Are these all brass or are they nickel plated? Hard for me to tell... sorry.
Thanks,
