Sharp shooter--- I know this thread is a little old, but did you buy it or not? Had the chance to shoot a #1 in .416 Rigby out at the range one day. Very friendly type had it, we got to talking and he invited me to try it--I will admit, his reloads were a little less potent than the factory stuff, shot about like my #1 in 45-70 although I've heard with the factory ammo, you have your hands full. If you ever watch any of the African hunting videos, you'll notice a lot of #1's leaning up against the dead elephant--
Bill Ruger got this one very right--
