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!

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
