Ruger and Lipseys have just completed a limited run of the Ruger 416 guide rifles for the Alaska Professional Hunters Association. They are marked accordingly and many have been pre purchased by APHA members
All the remains rifles are available from Arctic Ammo in Wasilla and I posted details in the Classified section

Count me in the second there's ever a special run of these (or any other good 416-500 caliber) in left hand.

Thanks, I just called Arctic Ammo and bought one. Price is considerably less than the MSRP on Lipseys, if anyone is curious.

Good -
Now I will have more allies in convincing Hornady to get off their butts and make cases for .375 & .416 Ruger - have not seen case in over two years!
They are too busy screwing around with trumpet fanfares for their new "Cartridge of the Day".

Very similar to the 338 Winchester brass and factory load circumstances. Though there has been 416 Ruger and Remington factory loads.
