It is costly here too!
Can it be sipped to you legally? Can loaded ammo be shipped to you? What do you pay now? What are you willing to pay?
Feel free to PM.

GunBug, It will be tough finding once fired Rigby brass, it's hard enough getting the new stuff. I found some Norma at Ellwood Epps in Ontario but believe I got the last of it. It was $159 Can for 50, that's not far off of normal. You can try Bashaw Sports in Bashaw Aberta, they usually have a lot of Norma Brass but whether they have 416 I don't know. Midway actually has a sale on .416 Rigby Norma brass ($40 Am a box of 20) right now, but as you probably know won't ship anything to Canada. If you have an American buddy do the drop shipping thing you would good to go. Watch ebay for brass as well. If asked politely a lot of those guys will ship to Canada for the extra bit of postage. I bought 40 new Norma the other day for $77 Am. He shipped it up in new plastic ammo boxes plus threw an extra 4 loose cases into the package. Good luck in your search. Someday the announced Hornady ammo will show up, and the supply and price issues will be fixed. Until then, good luck. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Edit to add: I just checked ebay for you, the guy I bought mine from has more up at a "buy it now price" of $77. He ships to Canada when asked. http://cgi.ebay.com/416-Rigby-Norma-Bras...1QQcmdZViewItem

Life begins at 40. Recoil begins at "Over 40" Coincidence? I don't think so.

http://www.qual-cart.com/416rigby.htmQuality Cartridge has good Rigby Ammo and Brass at less than $2.00 per piece. Is that whom you mean? I understand why companies may not want to export it to Canada, but I wonder is it because it is actually illegal, or are they just practicing international CYA? What about other gun related things like T/C barrels and parts, etc.?

Thank you.
I was lucky to catch Mid-way selling out their Federal rounds loaded with Nosler Spitzers last year. I bought 5 boxes at $65.00 each.

I've paid $70 to $90 for a bag of 20 new Norma brass up here. Wish I'd been in on that clear out from Midway.
