Talk me out of a 416

it is just a case of their marketing department overriding their scientific department, and convincing those that don't know how it works that black is white.
bruce.

another brand that is overpriced.

Let’s not forget about those premium Rugers, hammer forged!

Seriously, my 416 Ruger is quite accurate and doesn’t foul with 350gr Speers. Will probably run Northfork bullets for Buff.

I recently bought a $400 Ruger Predator in 6mm Creedmoor, .5 MOA gun and and the easiest load development I have ever done. Little to no fouling using 108gr Hornady ELDs.

To OP, Buy a 416 XXX and don’t look back!
 
Exactly.

There you go.

Buy the Rigby and you won't look back.
@Goose Cracker, Listen to wisdom. You are now one of us....one of us....one of us...there is't no escape!
I started with a 375 H&H, then went to 416 Rigby (kept the 375), then went to 450 Rigby (kept the 375 & 416), then went to 404 Jeffery (kept the 375, 416, 450). AND of course the 416 must be a Rigby as everything else is uncivilized! (yes I watch too much tv)

Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
To much to political shit, to little Africa :-)
Spending a few years hunting out west then back to Africa!

Hello. If you haven't already sold this rifle then I will purchase. Please advise. Thank you.

I doubt you are interested in any trades but I was getting ready to list a Sauer 404 3 barrel set in the 10-12 price range if your interested. It has the 404J, 30-06 and 6.5 Creedmoor barrel. Only the 30-06 had been shot and it has 7 rounds through it as I was working on breaking the barrel in. It also has both the synthetic thumbhole stock and somewhere between grade 3-5 non thumbhole stock
