Home Forums Gear Free Classifieds .416 Ruger

I have a beautiful custom .416 Ruger for sale. The rifle was built on a 1909 Argentine Mauser action which I had re-heat treated in Salt Lake City. The metal work was done by several custom makers, primarily by the late Jules LaBantchni and Danny Pedersen. Initially, it was chambered for the .338 WinMag cartridge. When I got it, I already had three rifles chambered for that cartridge, so I asked Danny Pedersen to rebore it for the then brand new .416 Ruger. After Danny performed his magic, I sent the barreled action, along with a stick of really nice English walnut, to Gary Goudy for restocking. As it turned out, the blank had a couple minor surface blemishes which Gary filled for me. It was much too nice a blank to toss. The rifle has Blackburn bottom metal, a custom quarter-rib with folding leafs that have not yet been filed, Ramp front sight base, barrel band front sling swivel base, Leupold VX-7 1.5-6x24mm scope in Talley mounts, three-position Model 70 type safety, red Pachmayr "Old English" pad and steel grip cap. It was finished off by a cold rust satin blue job. It is an excellent buy for the $4900 that I'm asking for it. shipped to your FFL.

As I just turned 80 in August, my African /Alaskan hunting days are behind me so I'm thinning the herd.

That is some fine rifle porn right there

Not much interest in the .416 so I'll drop the price to $4500, about the cost of a really nice stock these days.

I'll also add a Savage Model 12 stainless .22-250 in excellent condition. It has been short very little. I discarded the tupperware stock that came on it and had Curt Crum of the David Miller Co. fit a pre-turned laminate stock that I provided to it. The rifle is presently fitted with a US Optics 3.2-17 scope with a mil-dot reticle. With the scope, I'll take $2500 for it, or, I'll pull the scope and mounts and take $800 for just the rifle plus actual shipping costs. PM me for a photo if interested.

Hope this works.

Fantastic rifle and a heck of a bargain!

That is a gorgeous 416 Ruger very tastefully done by the best. Gary Goudy is one of the best stockmakers of all time.
All the best with this sale.

Spectacular classic rifle in a great cartridge. Heavy mediums are my weakness and this is one of the finest examples I’ve seen. Someone will be a very fortunate owner as this is a very fair price for a rifle of this quality by some of the best custom smiths in the business. Good luck with the sale.

What is the LOP and weight of this fine .416?
