Big Bores for small things

That's a good looking Mauser. Who built it?
 
This is the M98 built at the Mauser factory in Germany.
 
I have shot buffalo, lioness, wildebeest, warthogs, eland & gemsbok with the 416 Rigby. It works great within its range limits.

I took all of these animals (except the buffalo) with my 416 Rigby. I simply enjoy shooting bigger bore rifles and find that this works very well out to 200 yards. However I did put a Leupold 3x9 (quick release bases) on it for the small stuff and longer shots too.

+1 Great to deal with. I purchased custom rifle. No issues.

I saw you were looking for some Swift A-Frames for your 9.3. I just bought a bulk supply of them in the 285g. version. If Toby's are gone, I could let 100 go for $200 shipped you are interested.
Thanks,
Gary
