Ruger M77 Mk II Magnum Express Rifle .416 Rigby, I got the first one without the barrel band , I never killed anything with it and find it a bit HEV! but off the bench it seems to shoot very well! Anyone out there that shot this RIFLE and your thoughts.

Although a Weatherby Mark V Safari in a .416 Wby would be a excellent addition to my gun safe.

A .416 Remington or Taylor would be something to think about also.

OK I and the Action?? My 602 action has much to be desired but it can be worked! The Rigby Ruger was and is smooth as glass.The Trigger on my old 602 is not that great but its the only rifle that I have ever shot a HOLE IN ONE OR SHOULD I SAY TWO!! Cz barrel are as custom barrels as I see it , barrels on a mass production firearm but hand down the Ruger that I have is hands down better on the Trigger!

The CZ action was smooth and the trigger was fine. The Ruger safety was a piece of schit IMO. The CZ was simple and easy to reach with a scope mounted

It is scratched up since these photos. The briars are rough around here going after our huge squirrel population. Don't have to skin them though.

Those old rifles do make some really nice DGs. That one's a beaut.

You got some big old wabbits like Elk has in NM?

If you look at this rifle it as a custom should cost 10,000 BUCKS!
