.450 Rigby whats your opinion

I think it’s a great caliber but finding even reloading components especially brass is a problem so I have had no interest
 
Beautiful, except for the Hornady ammo lol
Well it came with the rifle. I do have Barnes, woodleigh, Nosler, cutting edge bullets and plenty of brass. Plenty of Nosler ammo as well. Basicaly I need to thin the crowd.

I have a Rigby 450 PH rifle and I am a huge fan . I reload using 500grain pills at 2350 - 2400 fps . It is brilliant . I can always get the bullets and in a pinch I can use 416 brass . I had a 458Lott Ruger Safari Magnum - very nice but the Rigby is better . I actually prefer shooting it to my Rigby 416 Big Game ( to the point I’m considering selling the 416 ) . Much less felt recoil for some reason and very accurate . Great cartridge in a great rifle .

What a great way to kick off our 2025 hunting season in South Africa.

This beautiful Impala ram was taken at just over 300 yards, took a few steps and toppled over.

We are looking forward to the next week and a half of hunting with our first client of the year.

Out of all the different color variations of Impala the black Impala just stands out with its beautiful pitch black hide.

Impala is one of the animals you will see all over Africa.
You can see them in herds of a 100 plus together.

This excellent ram was taken with one of our previous client this past season.
