Have a talk to Steve Beaty at Ivythorne, he had some well priced solid 416 bullets and dies. 1967 Spud may also have some once fired cases

I have some heads what are you after

 

[VIGILAIRE]

Thanks guys, just heading out but will try Steve later. Looking for any bullets at this stage Foxpro, I have a new RCBS mould which I want to crack on with soon. I already have RCBS dies, a Lee factory crimp die and their length gauge with holder so ready to go. I've got 40 or so fired cases that came with the rifle.

I've got 40 or so fired cases that came with the rifle.

If you have 40 or so cases for a .416 then you have about 37 too many.





You'll find out...

Ahh a Ruger RSM
I’ve always liked the look of those and finally handled one that is for sale at Ivythorne with Steve Beaty. Lovely rifle that I understand were made by Ruger at a loss as it was Bill Rugers passion.

A certain gunshop in London called J Rigby and Sons will have ammo.

Also try William Evans and Paul Roberts.

Shot .416 Rigby @ Diggle, recoil handleable ........ but certainly no range work rifle.

Myself and some friends gathered at a range a while back to shoot some big bores. A Browning A bolt in 375, Winchester Model 70 in 416, a Chapuis 9.3x74r and a Ruger No1 in 416.
The Ruger No1 in 416 won the vote as the toughest rifle to shoot. The Model 70 was easy to shoot, the 9.3x74 was a pussy.

 

[VIGILAIRE]

Well I was at Rigby's a couple of months ago so loaded factory cartridges are not a problem. Am currently using some old Berdan primed rounds which are still very lively in the recoil department but as noted it's manageable but deffo north of my 9.3's. 50% of these older rounds have splits in the neck after firing.

Thanks guys, PM's replied to.

Norma Ammo in stock
Peregrine and Hornady Bullets in stock
Few odd cases lying around

Last I heard, there were still some Barnes bullets available from Raytrade. It's worth asking them. I think I've got some Hornady solids hanging around if you just want cheap bullets to chuck down the range to keep your eye in.

 

[ruger7717]

I've got an unopened box of 50 Hornady 400gr DGX if of any interest to you.
