The Francotte .416 pictured in Speed's book looks like Rigby because it uses the same Oberndorf made basis.
Notice also that the Francotte Company has produced many rifles in the white for the English trade…(!) and if their Farquharson action manufacture is well known, there is little doubt about their production of bolt-action repeaters.
A good friend of mine owns such a pre WW2 .416 Francotte that’s a perfect clone of its Rigby counterpart: exactly same stock, same sights and same furniture.
If you have a look at Jon Speed “Mauser Archives” book you will find photos of .275, .350 and .416 barrelled actions in the white, complete with sights bases, flat on barrel, etc. made and proofed at Oberndorf before being delivered to the English maker who take care of the stocking and regulating before applying its name on. I’m not sure that in the thirties the Francotte C° didn’t use the same systems for their own use or to supply their partners.
