FWIW, FYRP:

Midway Sale on 416 Riby Brass by Norma

Thanks lawndart. sadly I can look but do nothing about it.

.366torque,
You are no doubt referring to Midway's policy of not shipping anything to Canada? A real drag, that one. I just got some Norma .416 Rigby brass from Ellwood Epps in Ontario (For $4 a case)and have some more coming that I bought on ebay for $77 AM for 40 new Norma cases. A lot of ebay sellers are a lot more willing than Midway, at least if you contact them and explain that a couple extra bucks for shipping and a long wait don't bother you much.

That is about half the price I will be paying in RSA, damn good deal.

Overhere in denmark they go for $2.5/pcs.

$4 a piece, that's a bit much!!! russell sports has them for about $3.25 for everything. The only problem is last I checked, next year is when they'll be availible.

P.S. they also have Swift A-Frames on page 100

Jaco Human,
So is the RSA price $4.00 or $8.00 per case? Or rather 24 Rand or 48 Rand.Perhaps the clients should tip in Rigby brass? (Grin)

.366torque,
Russels didn't have any when I checked either, which led to the search continueing. I did get some .416 Swift A-frames from them though. $4 a case was better than not getting them at all, and I got the last 50 they had. I am glad that I don't need 1000 of them!

I've used the .470 brass and it is fine!

Hi Dogleg,
Last time I checked it was R23.00 per casing, but that was the old price and not for Norma. They were still waiting for the new prices. I am still busy building my 416R, so I do not need them immidiately.

Tipping with 416R cases, darn good idea. I will have to shift my marketing efforts towards 416R owners.

I can get it in Namibia at less than US$2-00 per case. I fireform it to use it in my .450 Rigby.

Well, brass cases might be a more stable currency than any country's paper money.
Here's a coincidence for you; just when I opened this forum the parcel girl (Too cute to call a mailman)brought me some Norma .416 Rigby brass that I bought on ebay. The auction was for 40 pieces, but he shipped 44 packed in new J&J plastic ammo boxes for $77 Am. That's half of the Canadian price or $1.75 AM per case.The cases are worth something too. I've got 165 cases now which will have to do until next July. 40 to go buffalo hunting and the rest to try to wear my CZ out.
