Rigby "Big Game" Model in 450 Rigby

Great shooting!!! Nothing like a beautiful rifle that shoots......except of course taking game with a beautiful rifle that shoots.
 
Good stuff hopefully your next target will be a good buffalo or something else big.
 
Had an awesome day at the range today, I received a new Rigby target with the rifle so I finally had a crack at putting 3 rounds onto the paper shooting it off the bench, well what I call my bench anyway which is just a shooting bag across the bonnet of my car. Couldn't be happier with how it turned out, managed a 0.8" group at 50m. Also managed to put 3 rounds offhand at 50m into a 2.7" group. Who said open sighted big bores aren't accurate!? I absolutely love this rifle now I am used to it.

What grade wood is that?

Beautiful piece.
 
I had it out on the range again just last weekend, I think I shoot this rifle with open sights better than any other I have ever had or tried before. Hoping I can shoot my new double just as well.
Keep us posted on the success in the field with it just nice when a rifle just lines up perfectly.

Please refresh my memory, what is your new double?

Morning Rob, Any feeling for how the 300 H&H shoots? How's the barrel condition?
