Ruger and Lipseys have produced a limited run of the Ruger 416 guide rifles for the Alaska Professional Hunters Association. Arctic Ammo in Wasilla has agreed to sell the remains few rifle and I posted more in the classified section

For $1600+ the Ruger comes with a Hogue Overmold..lol…GMAFB….I guess it does make sense when viewed through lens of how the APHA fu.cks everyone that isn’t a non-resident guide…
APHA can kiss my white ass!

Considering the fact that Ruger had decided to stop production, this is a great chance to get one

It did cross my mind. The club like stock and the loudener on the end of the barrel can be dealt with (for a price). The lack of available brass and the only alternative of one manufacturer (with two types of loaded ammo for $5+ per round) is the biggest detractor.

At this point in time I lost faith in anything Hornady used to produce. They pretty much discontinued making brass for the 450/500, 450 NE, 470 NE, etc. Now they stopped producing 300 RCM, 338 RCM, 375 Ruger, and 416 Ruger. And the last time they made a batch of 405 Winchester brass it was a special order for one company. Some of these out of production items you can still get brass, if you pay the premium for loaded ammo. Others, you are shet out of luck unless you have a good supply or find it for sale in the classifieds.
My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

If I remember right they had it in stock.

Just called and they have no 416 ammo in stock at the moment. $120 per box when they do get some in. The rifle is considerably less than Lipsey's MSRP.

I'll have to agree with Aces & BS,
that rifle ain't worth $1600, is the extreme price tag because it's associated with APHA ? what makes them so special ?
20" barrel is way too short and 1:14 is far too slow of a twist in .416 cal, and that Hogue stock is absolute, total & complete crap, I've bought used rifles with that hideous embarrassment on them and tossed the stocks in the dumpster STAT

Pard, I stopped in sportsman’s warehouse in Wasilla this morning they had 5-6 boxes of 416 ruger. No clue on price though. I do need to go back buy some leverevolution. My pard stick squared me up in load info, he’s a good pard to have.

$1175 if purchased from current stock. $1375 if from second shipment. I guess time is money???
Limited purpose built for sure, but too many negatives to resolve to make it a good idea.
The 416 RM that bearhunter sold last spring was a far better mouse trap.

I know the Hogue stock gets lots of hate, but it works. I've got one on my 338 Hawkeye, it soaks up recoil and I shoot small groups every year without poi shift. The Ruger stock is noticeably harsher on recoil.
