I have two .375 H&H's(Ruger M77 & Win. M70), Ruger .416 Rigby and two .450 Marlins( Win. M70 & Ruger No.1). Currently I'm building a .450 Rigby on a Ruger M77 action, SO if anybody out there has any load information on this cartridge I would be very grateful if you could pass it along to me. Have a Safe and Happy New Year. Lawdog

Lawdog,
Go over to Accuratereloading.com and post in the big bore forum. There are several folks that shoot 450 Rigby's there. Also use the search function for older related posts.

Presently, a Ruger #1-S in .375 H&H, which has broken its Redfield scope. Also something NO ONE ELSE YET MENTIONED <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> A Field's Patent falling block by R.B. Rodda, in .500-.450 #1 Blackpowder Express. The former is a nice shooter, the latter I am working on, so far 4" groups at 50 yards is the best it's done. Would like a .416 Rigby CZ, they seem a great buy, though I'd have to get the stock shortened. I also have no idea what the hell I'd shoot with it <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> Anybody have one? A .45-70 Ruger #1 has a nice feel. Ruger's 416's, though, are usually too heavy. A hunting rifle need not weigh 10 lbs! That rumor of a .405 Winchester in a #1S?? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> Ahh, now we can find out what that cartridge will REALLY do!

I have a Ruger #1 45-70, a .416 Taylor and a .375 Ackley Improved. I just wish I could go shoot them at the game they were designed for.

I have a 444 Marlin Timber Carbine, 45-70 Marlin LTDV, 2- 375 H&H bolt actions, and a Win M70 458. If handguns count how about 2- 454 Cassulls, 45 Colt Ruger.

I think I'll invent Carson's inverse rule: The older one gets the less recoil one likes. This doesn't explain the .458 Ruger M77 I just purchased. (Christmas present my wife says). Anyone have a really loud, but low recoiling load for this beastie? The locals will be impressed when I jerk up on the muzzle during recoil and give'm a brave smile. My wife will quite asking what those black and blue marks are on my right shoulder are too. (Those were from a lowly 9.3 x 62 mm 286 @ 2360 fps, 7.3 lbs. I'm a whimp it seems.)
Those of you who shoot all those British Nitro Express cartridges have my upmost respect.

I just had my Win M70 .375 H&H rebarrelled in .416 Rem. As soon as I get it back from the 'smith, that's what I'll be shooting. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />
It is not enough to fight for natural land and the west; it is even more important to enjoy it. While you can. While it's still there. So get out there and hunt and fish and mess around with your friends...

Hi All,
This is my first post. I guess my .444 Marlin only qualifies as a large medium bore. Sure feels big since is in a 5 lb T/C Contender Carbine w/ a 16.25 inch BBL.
