416 Taylor on Gunbroker

Here it is.

I don't know about the price. I think the stock is ugly at best but you do get 100 peices of brass and 150 loaded rounds plus the dies. Might be worth it. I would sure want to see a few more pictures. If I was considering it. If I did want it and bought it I would replace the bolt handle and stock.

The hell of it is that were you to buy this rifle, you could probably sell that abomination of a stock on eBay for enough money to get a nice piece of Walnut. So the ugly stock might be a good thing?

Splendid piece,

but I wish it was chambered for .416RemiMag.

Quite honestly, with .458Lott out there a handloader can nix the entire .400 cartridge family.

Paolo, if that is who you really are, or are you really RAY ATKINSON!!

That is just like something Ray would write.
I miss hearing how the Taylor is obsolete.

That'd bring a tear to a glass eye

G"day Ray!!

One word, and one word only, describes that gun: FUGLY.

I kind of like the stock.

The price is about 500.00 dollars to high.

If I could get it for under 500 I keep just the way it is and have a shooter beater rifle.

PDS got it on the head. At $500 it would be in my safe. Packy

Any idea what "counter board" means in the discription?

handloader --- replace lott - which is out of steam at 2300-- with 458 ar, and you get another 100fps

could it be counter-bored...? I knew a gunsmith that used to counterbore about 2" of the barrel about .005" and use the indexing head on his mill to build in a muzzlebrake.

Think of that stock as the plywood equivalent of cultural diversity...
