Wanderer I feel for you living in WA.

That is one nice looking rifle. The grain flow through the wrist is exactly what you want on a big kicker. I went 416 Rigby in the CZ simply because it was about $500 cheaper at the time.

I found Woodleigh 400grain Weldcores throw to the same POI as the Hydros. The lighter 340 grain Weldcore unfortunately land half way to the next postcode. Go hunt something with it, even rabbits.

There is not a hunter who does not dream of possessing a 404 Jeffery, it is natural, until you have a 404 Jeffery in your hands, shooting it, handling it is the only way to get rest for your yearning soul...but someday you will have the privilege to own a 404 Jeffery rifle, you just need to sell the .416 Rigby....
You still have a great rifle, enjoy it and work from softer loads up to where you can shoot this caliber without discomfort..shooting a lot can be expensive when using shop ammo, do think of casting your own bullets to shoot a more affordable set up...use the premium bullets for hunting /cast bullets loads for practicing...

 

[Rule 303]

Gert you have it slightly wrong. You yearn for a 404 until you get a 416 Rigby, then you say 404, what's that?

 

[Gert Odendaal]

No,no you will find as time passes by, the yearning for something bigger , more deadlier is still there...until you have a 404 Jeffery in your hands...you will find you want to use it more and keep the .416 Rigby as your safe queen, it really comes natural...

 

[Rule 303]

Alzheimer's will have set in by then and I'll be lucky to remember my name let alone what a calibre is

Gert I've been shooting this a bit at the Big Game Rifle club, seem to be shooting it better than my 375H&H As for the 404J maybe oneday but its going to be hard to part with the rigby! Besides I need(well want but who is being picky!) something in a double and something containing a 5!.... Plenty of time to research and plan

The Wanderer, enjoy your large bore caliber, the best rifle for you is the rifle you shoot with, it is always a joy to be enthusiastic about a rifle a person shoots well with, I really enjoy my 404 Jeffery since it fit me extremely well and I shoot accurate with it , there is a a great story behind my 404 Jeffery and it make it just that much more special to me... I already add my own story , piece of history to my 404 Jeffery, we are growing together...
