Wanted for .416 Rigby ammo and reloading stuff

Well, its beautiful. Thanks for sharing. I'm getting by with a Kimber Caprivi in 416 Rem. Brutal on the bench but not bad when I'm shooting standing.
 
I have some 416 Swift A-frames (400gr) if you're interested
 
I was actually wondering, is it possible to shorten the stock without messing up the shoot-ability given the current placement of the cheek piece? Like will that move the cheek piece out of where it needs to be for my LOP? Or should I just try a thinner stock pad first? Maybe go for the super manly option and just put a steel butt plate back there lol
I know this is not responsive to the request for ammo/components, but please feel free to post a picture of the other side of the rifle (with cheek piece). For whatever reason, it seems Heym (and other German manufacturers) built rifles with a longer LOP than here in the states. Something I appreciate. I would think LOP would be long for you as it sits (you should be closer to 13.5" per the experts. :-). However, It really depends on your body habitus and not just height.

Great rifle!

Here's a photo of Tony receiving that Shaw & Hunter award at the 1970 annual EAPHA Dinner Dance. Tony Dyer, then EAPHA President and Princess (Sunny) von Auersperg presented it. I also attended the event.

Good Afternoon,
How firm are you on your Dakota 416? I am highly interested but looking at a few different guns currently.

Best,
BJ

What is the minimum you would take.
