Well

Before Rigby was sold to USA the brass were made by D Horneber and soem ammo were made by WR. I have two boxes of ammo for a 450 rigby rimless. I have also seen Kynoch ammo for the 416.

I'm not sure who makes it, I guess it's someone in USA since the company name have been sold to americanos.

I think that the current batch of RIGBY brass was made by BELL/MAST or whatever their name is.

Lots of off-center primer holes and hard brass "tits" inside the necks to watch out for.
