G’day Razorback.

We can definitely supply you with the EAW scope mounts. They are a really good product. If you’re still interested in some, please shoot me a message, more than happy to assist.

Thanks.

Thanks. Picked up a set last year. They work great.

Now that is a proper looking stock, IMO

As a few of you probably already know, I recently purchased a Rigby Highland Stalker in 9.3X62. Finally got my hands on it today, haven't had it on the range yet but so far super happy with it.

I have noticed quite a few different threads on here where people are asking about scope mounts for this rifle, chamberings, costs, upgrades, weight, best scope choices etc. I thought maybe a thread specific to Highland Stalkers might help people out when they are considering one and looking for info on these rifles.

So show us your Highland Stalkers!

Mine is the standard configuration as per the specs on Rigby's website, no upgrades, chambered in 9.3X62, built in 2018 so has been sitting on the shelf for quite a while, genuine Mauser Hexalock mounts, Leupold VX-3HD 1.5-5 scope, rifle weighs in at 8.74lbs unloaded with the mounts and scope, perfect amount of bolt clearance with the scope using the Hexalock mounts. I'm going to be running heavy for calibre 320 grain Woodleighs through it for big game in the northern part of Australia. Will be sure to let you know how it shoots when I get it the range.

The rifle was one of the sweetest deer rifles to come along in quite some time. and the stock is most definitely a winner. Using an open, sweeping pistol grip with a rounded cap, the Highland Stalker feels perfect from just about any field position.

I also like that rounded grip. Or even a POW grip

Yes

They have a good group of people at Rigby .

 

[KJE81]

Yes

Wonder when they will be starting to deliver them to those who ordered them first, it would be nice to see some pictures of finished ones.

Drop them an email and ask . I’m sure they will try and give you an answer.

They are unfortunately out of my price range, just curious to see how they look for real so to say.

 

[Dakota Hunter]

Very nice !

My .275. Only "custom" feature was a slightly longer throat to optimize 170 class bullets. Pure luck with the stock.

Nice !
