Putting up a rifle I built in 416 express (350 REM MAG opened up to 416) Read Ken Water pet load and built this rifle, it started off and a 300RCM. Comes with the Leupold 1x4 scope, dies, and a 10 rounds of brass. I will include load data for 350 gr speer bullets.

$1150 delivered to your ffl.

If I didnt already have a love affair going with my 416 Taylor, I'd be all over this one... LOVE the idea of the express and what its capable of..
 
I have a .416 Taylor as well. This sounds like a wonderful rifle!
 
Yes it is a great everything in North America and any of the plains game rifle. 300gr bullets 2400-2450fps and 350 in the 2250-2300 range very easily. In a short action.

The 416 taylor is a very nice round.
 
Please post a photo of the front sight if get a chance. Thanks!
 
I will try and get a picture later today. It is a NECG Masterpiece banded ramp style.
 
Here is the picture requested.

I'm not even a right handed shooter but this is tempting. What a great setup!
 
You just have to give into you temptations:Jimlad: Buy yourself a nice Halloween treat:Angelic:
 
How high does it bounce if you drop it on the butt pad.:ROFLMAO::p
 
if the manufactures would make a stock to a proper length (15 1/4-3/8) I wouldn't have to use such a thick pad. I do have another stock that is normal short ruger length that I could change out with the current stock if the buyer should perfer.
 
We dont all have orangutan arms Dave! :ROFLMAO: LOL. I have a fairly long arms too, but my max LOP is about 14.5". Preferred is about 13.8".

L O P difference is easily fixed; I suspect it could serve its purpose on Afrikan D/G quite well, a little under 416 Ruger performance levels. Anyone for BIG Bear hunt ?
 
Quick change of the recoil pad and it is back to factory length. Also found more brass. comes with around a 100 rounds of brass.
