Which 416 do you own and what rifle.

Mike

Shilen barreled 416 Dakota on a Mod 70 Winchester.

A pair of Rugers, M77 and a #1. Don't know which I have more fun with.
Both Rigbys

Mine is a .416 Rem in a Model 70 Winchester. I mounted a 3 X 9 Ziess Conquest scope on it and with a 370 gr. North Fork it is deadly indeed. Good shooting.

Mines a 416 Taylor. Winchester M70 Classic, stainless steel, left-handed. Douglas 1-12" twist barrel, NECG iron sights, and Gentry barrel band front swivel mount. The scope is a Leupold 2.5-8X on Leupold QR rings.

.416 Taylor on a Vz24 Brno Mauser, PacNor stainless 1:14, Bell and Carlson Medalist stock, Leupold rings and bases and Weaver K2.5 scope.

416 Taylor, built on a VZ-24, hinged bottom metal, A&B barrel, English walnut stock. No permanent scope as of yet.

Ruger No.1, 416 Rigby. Its one of the earlier ones I think. It has an orange pad, and surprisingly nice wood for factory.

My 416 Remington is a Ruger No1-H. 24" barrel, Weaver V3 1-3X20mm lapped into Leupold low rings

Don G where are you...(To the tune of the old Car 54)

Don has one of the prettiest .416 girls on the block. Come on Don, show us some of that 'action'

BMG, Don has been pretty busy lately, so in case he doesn't respond right away I thought I'd post a picture of him with his sweetheart. It is both beautiful and deadly (notice the .416 cal entrance hole on the impala. ). Don on the other hand, well, he is deadly!

I didn't think there were this many 416 shooters in the country!

Mine is a 416 Rem, Winchester Safari Express, bedded into a HS Precision stock. It's wearing a Leupold 1.5-5X20 in Leupold QD rings. The mounts are held down with 8X40 screws. I also replaced the follower and mag spring with Remington 700 parts just to make myself feel better.

Joe.

Mine is a 416/404 built on a M98 action. It is very light for a 416, equipped with three leaf shallow V rear sight, barrel banded front sight with square bead, barrel band and a laminated stock w/ Kick-Eze Pad. It is quite accurate and kicks like a mule. However, it isn't a target rifle and it is just right for what it was designed to be: a carry all day stopping rifle. Ku-dude

Weatherby Euro-mark, 416 Weatherby Magnum.

Like Charlie, another 416 Wby Euromark

416 Rigby in a Ruger 77-Leupold 1.75X6E scope in Warne quick detachable rings-NEGC green fiber optic front sight-1" decelerator recoil pad. Bring on Mbogo.

Ruger 77RSM in .416 Rigby. Never scoped it as it is too much fun shooting it with the open sights. I did add a decelerator pad though.

416 Rigby in a Thompson encore pistol.

So far and including more than one for a couple of posters:

5 416 Taylors

9 416 Remingtons (I know Don Gs is a Rem)

14 416 Rigbys

3 416 Wbys

1 416 Dakota

1 416/404

Gents,
My rifle was built for me by Jim Wasmundt of Fossil Oregon. It is a 416 Rem Mag on a Remington P-14 Action. It wears a Pac-Nor CM barrel,Timney Trigger,Bell & Carlson stock and a old steel Weaver 6x scope. I hope to find a fixed power Leupold at this weekends gun show.I love this rifle. You just can't argue with 400 grains at 2400fps ! Jim has also built me a 458x2" on a Winchester P-14,and I have a Winchester P-14 375 Taylor (375-338)and a P-17 in 30-06. I have commisioned Jim to build me a 35 Whelen on my last remaining P-17 action after he finishes my 1871 Remington Rolling Block 357 Maximum Schuetzen rifle project. A Gunsmith that knows when to act on his own and when to listen is hard to find. I have been to Williams Firearms Company here in town and spoken to Matt about their action aspirations and hope to score one when they release something big enough for the 510 Wells I need.:> 45nut

416 Rigby, CZ550 with laminated stock and Decelerator pad, no scope - sent his brother to the feedlot to grow into a 500A2 - no hijack intended -- KMule

1. 416 Taylor:
Ruger 77 Mark II stainless action, with Timney replacement trigger, and stainless steel floorplate (taken off a 25-06 Ruger varmint gun) to replace the alloy floorplate of the originally 338 WinMag action-donor rifle.
Shilen 26" stainless barrel, #4 sporter contour, 1 in 14" twist, Dakota express sights, Gentry barrel band sling base.
3 Stocks: Ruger boat paddle with add-on Decelerator pad and Uncle Mike's sling base on buttstock, or Hogue OverMolded with aluminum pillars, or newest Ruger synthetic stock, taken off another Ruger rifle, glass bedded.

2. 416 Barnes Supreme:
Mark X Whitworth action, with Timney trigger, 24" Douglas #4 chrome moly barrel 14" twist, stocks: factory walnut express rifle, Brown Precision fiberglass, Bell&Carlson synthetic, etc., getting tedious here ...

3. 416 Remington Magnum:
Winchester M70 Safari Express factory rifle with the negative-drop walnut stock.

4. 416 Rigby:
Ruger No. 1-H factory rifle.

5. 416 Rigby:
Ruger 77 Magnum factory rifle.

6. 416 Rigby:
CZ 550 Safari Magnum, factory rifle, plus a synthetic stock that I got from Nickudu, sold out of RSA by Arm Tec, but sure looks like a Bell&Carlson with an Uncle Mike's recoil pad.

Add to tally:
1 Taylor
1 Barnes Supreme, the only one in the world maybe.
1 Remington
3 Rigby

416 taylor, M98, A&B barrel 24", laminated stock, scout-scope

.416 Taylor done on a (don't laugh) Savage long action, leupold rings and mounts with a Weaver steel k2.5, set into a black/grey laminat stock. Am I the ultimate cheapskate or what? Don't let a small paycheque keep you from having fun!

NB hunter I am not laughing there is nothing wrong with your rifle. There is only one bloke that has to be happy with that rifle, and thats the nut behind the butt my friend

Tell me a little bit more about the taylor, if I remember rightly it is the .458 win mag necked down ?? is that right
