Rigby .275 Highland Stalker FOR SALE
~ S/N 14422 ~
View attachment 311430

This is the hardly-used Rigby .275 Highland Stalker that I bought as-new in late-2018. Its stock is unmarked Grade 8 walnut in "Norfolk Best" oiled finish and is fitted with a leather covered pad. A Spartan classic gunsmith adaptor has been fitted with the approval of Rigby.

It is being sold fitted with a choice of moderator - either a Lawrence Precision titanium unit or a Rigby brand c/w a leather pouch - and a Ziegler quick-release scope mount system with 30mm rings.

My family talked me out of selling this earlier, but I'm not getting any younger and the gun has still fired fewer than 200 rounds since new. So I would rather it now went to someone who will enjoy it and who will be able to use it properly.

Price new today in Rigby's 'configurator' is slightly over £16,000 incl VAT. My price as described and shown here is £7,500.

He'll hate it ... not

Just before the gun started its journey to Sean I added +4 to the round count from 100yds in my paddock.

I attempted to show off by getting everything more-or-less through the same hole but (annoyingly!) pulled the last one.

But at least it gives you some idea of what the gun will be capable in the hands of someone who shoots better than I do !!

You must be a little sorry to see such a fine rifle leave the cabinet, I know I would be, I'm even a little sad that it was in Norfolk and I didn't get to set my eyes upon it.
Such a shame our system of gun ownership is so restrictive, I'm sure there are plenty of folks with the funds to own a fine rifle like this, but the hassle of a variation or addition is off-putting.
I'm sure it will get some use in the USA.

Thanks Bo, but a gun like that - however much of a classic - needs to work.

So whilst I enjoyed every minute of my ownership, as I got older and slower it needed to move on.

Now with what Sean has planned for it, its story can continue. I'm much more glad than sorry

I can’t decide if I’m gutted or pleased this has sold. At least I can relax now…….

 

[stephen quinn]

I’ve seen a few of these rifles before but I must admit this is a beautiful rifle beats my k95 and my Fausti double all day long I hope the person who’s bought it enjoys owning it as much as we all would merry Christmas

Get the barrel screw cut for a mod....





I'll see myself out

What a rifle that is. Whoever purchased it is a lucky man. Enjoy it.

Wow, I can't buy it but I would to like to Stalk in the UK with a fine rifle like that.

I'm sure that would come at a premium but it would be nice to do a hunt like that hiring the rifle for the hunt and the pictures

I think it already is.

 

[stephen quinn]

I know most modern rifles are screw cut but that rifle with a mod on it just wouldn’t look right on a Scottish hill the balance wouldn’t be right the Spartan bipod idear is what I did with my k95 and a hand made sling which can hold it when walking in

Yeah, a suppressor on a Rigby doesn't seem right.
Can't have a "Silencer" in Australia anyway but I don't think I could do one on a classic rifle.
