I've come across a #1H in .416 Rem. It comes with 38 rds, of brass and 2 live rounds, which apparently accounts for it's 'experience' to this point - it looks like new.

Does anybody out there have one? How do you like it? Any idea as to $$ value?

Tumbleweed. I have had two No1's, a 243 and a 45/70. Still have the 45/70, it is one of the rifles I will not sell. I have shot a friends 375H&H and another buddys 458Win Mag. The No1 is an excellent rifle, especially in the big bores. You do not have to worry about any feeding or extraction problems that seem to plague big bore bolt rifles. Also I have never heard of a No1 busting a stock[in factory calibers]. With some practice you can shoot, reload, shoot, almost as fast as a bolt rifle, with our worry of any feeding problems. Any of the 40 cal big bores are excellent calibers. If the recoil of factory 416's are a bit much, just load down to 450/400,404 Jeffery velocity @2125 to 2150fps. The game cannot tell the difference. For deer and pigs a 300gr at 2300fps is a sure killer with mild recoil.

I've had one since '95....they're a great gun and shoot well. New they're around $700-$800, so used I'd say they're worth $500-$600.

Tumbleweed,
I've an '06, a .416Rigby and a .450#2 and they are great.
NE450No2 is right, with practice you can learn to shoot them very quickly.
Go ahead and get it.
