Yes, but I'm not totally sure if I'll need it or not. I'd like to get one and have it on hand just in case. The Rigby project has been set back a bit due to a bottom metal change. I bought one of Wiebe's 4mxj bottom metals designed for the 404jeff. Not my first choice, but the best option I could find. I recently came across some true Oberndorf Style Magnum 416 Rigby bottom metals (Pocket floor plate) made back in the mid 90's. These were production overruns for a contract with Rigby. They even hold 4 rounds down. They are beautiful!

Did you have to go through New England Custom Gun?
They import Prechtl actions for an arm and a leg.

skbno, I did it myself. I am an importer also. Prechtl is hard to get a hold of by phone and email was difficult due to language issues. where did you find the Oberndorf style bottom metal and is there any mo5re available?

fla3006I have two on Brevex magnum Mausers (416Rigby & 500A2) that I got from Brownells. Don't know who actually made them, maybe Jim Wisner.

I bought them from Jim Wisner. He had four left at a terrific price. I bought two and asked to buy the other two after Christmas (I should be keeping my mouth shut). I told him that if he just absolutely had to sell them to someone else I would understand. I wanted to keep them around just in case I have some other hair brained project ideas come at a future time when I'm making enough money to fund them. I figured they'd make a good investment opportunity, if nothing else, given the fact that I can't find anyone else making them these days. Ted Blackburn use to make them, but no longer. Jim was selling some leftover Brevex size bottom metals as well. He might still have some of those.

22WRFWhy not try and call a company that is making magnum mausers and see if they would sell you one.
GMA (Granite Mountain Arms) comes to mind.
