Don't have anything around here that needs to be shot with a 225 Winchester...I wonder if it was a30/06 if the price for it would have been $30,060.00?

I don't understand why someone would have decidedly non-Rigby looking stockwork done to a Rigby.

That pistol grip is waay too pronounced and the forend is a beavertail.

Kinda like putting racing stripes and a whale tail on a Bentley.

I demand the utmost opulence when shooting a penned exotic.

Looks like a California Rigby to me built on Merkel action. They produced some pretty guns when in business. Would be cool to have but a bit steep price for me.
