What a ripper! Interesting how many rifles fitted with the cocking-piece peep still retained a standing rear sight blade. If it was mine, I'd have to rationalise that.

Very nice acquisition. I'm envious!

And another thing: an interesting dimension I see repeated over and over again on best quality British bolt actions: the lenth of the forearm from the front of the receiver ring to the tip of the forearm will be nearly identical to the distance from the front of the receiver ring back to the trigger.

A little more is fine, a little less is fine, but that distance seems to look perfect, and is too commonly repeated to be accidental.

I agree. Thanks to MFC for bringing the photos back to life.

I like everything about the rifle: Stock proportions, forend, grip length, drop at comb and heel, rendering of the butt and pad, tasteful metal work, and excellent sighting.

I am printing the photos for my reference file and will spend much time looking at them when designing my next stock.

The typical American gun builder has never learned the classic style of the best British rifles. Even those of the much touted closely knit clan, you gents know of whom I am speaking about.

My thinking exactly. There was much discussion a year or so on another forum concerning geometric formulas for forend length. Hah! Bunch of armchair experts spouting off. Just make the forend as squarebridge says, assemble the rifle, and back off ten feet for a good look. Make small changes as they are apparent to the eye. Test fire the rifle with unfinished stock and metal in the bright, continue with minor adjustments until the form and the function are spot on for the individual shooter's shooting style. Then the final finishing may proceed.

Most Americans are spoiled by shooting a their rifles from a benchrest position. Hence the poor stock design of American rifles!!!

Yep. I would say handicapped rather than spoiled - the reason our rifles look like they do - dead straight combs, no drop at heel, fat-thick-flat foreends, hilariously overpowered scopes, is because the rifle will fire 500 rounds at the range off a bench at a paper target for every one it fires in the woods. I don't consider this a step forward in the history or riflery.

Re: .350 Rigby

My .350 Rigby is #4981 and I am pretty sure it was built in 1924. I will have to check my paperwork on it to be sure.
I would guess that this one is certainly within a year or so of mine.
The "American style" seems to have evolved with advent of common scope usage. Makes sense here in the western US where hunting ranges tend to be farther. Longer ranges, more scope usage and therefore rifles with generally higher butts more inline with the barrel.
IMO, the Winchester model 54 and the prewar model 70s were the last properly dimensioned American boltguns. They feel very good as open sighted rifles. Not as good as my British guns though...

Yea I have a bunch of them. Nothing wrong with this style when you are out in the blue yonder and that Elk is 300 yards away. My 338 is on a Mark X and wears a Pacific Research stock.

However, my heart throb is a fine built rifle wearing irons such as the Rigby in this thread.

My favorite stock design (taken from a Westley Richards) has an 8" forend. I use this for everything, whether it is for a Mauser, SMLE, Marlin, whatever. And I like plenty of drop at heel as well. If a stock is too straight, it tends to be awkward, at least in my experience.

I completely agree. I don't think anything can compete with the pre-war Rigbys for looks, other than maybe a pre-war Holland or Purdey double. This one is a complete peach, and the cartridge is just as beautiful as the rifle.

Someone asked about the price. I think I remember that Roger Bain had offered it in the high teens and it's well worth that in my opinion.

I have cleaned one old mauser "oily" stock. Hair dryer is a good device to gently warm the wood and then oil comes up to surface so it´s easy to wipe away. And industry quality alcohol is a good fluid for latter cleaning work.

I do feel a tinge of regret letting this rifle go. Especially now that there is some possibility that the new Rigby may again make rifles to this pattern (even if the well deserving 350 Magnum isn't revived).

At the time, this gun was, I hate to say... just another bolt gun (although a very nice one) and I was in the process of moving out of bolt actions and into singles and doubles.
Now, having let go of my 416 Rigby(Mahillon), 404 Jeff (William Evans), 350 and still having my 425WR, I can say that the 350 was the one that is the epitome of what a usable sporting rifle is meant to be.

(1937) Cal. .350 Magnum. 24″ Tapered round bbl with large boss at breech end is fitted with sleeved-on rear sight base holding two folding leaf express sight, banded-on sling eye, and sleeved-on front ramp with white bead. Top of bbl is engraved in Olde English script “John Rigby & Co. 43 Sackville St. London.” Square bridge magnum Mauser action is engraved “.350 MAGNUM” and “RIGBY MAUSER” around receiver ring, left side of which is stamped with Rigby SN and Mauser SN. Bolt with classic pear shaped handle has flag safety, gold inlaid “SAFE”. Cocking piece is fitted with Rigby’s special patented peep sight. Sear has been V’d out and cocking piece fitted to better center this sight. Single stage trigger is temper blued. Drop box bottom metal has hinged straddle floorplate held in place by button in trigger guard bow. Rear portion of floorplate is engraved “A. F. S. C”. Rigby number is stamped in trigger guard bow. Relatively plain European walnut steel trap capped pistol grip buttstock (spare front sight in trap) measures 15″ over serrated steel buttplate with trap. Trap contains pull through cleaning kit. Stock features classic Rigby styling with flat top point pattern checkering with mullered borders, deeply chamfered ejection port, short forend without contrasting tip, and a sling eye on toe line. Drop at heel: approx 3-1/8″, drop at comb: approx 1-3/4″. Weight: 8 lbs 12 oz. LOP: 15″. PROVENANCE: Rigby historian confirms Rigby # 5626 (Mauser 100952)as a “Sporting Magnum” for A.F.B.

Metal parts retain 70 – 80% of their orig thin factory blue, most loss on floorplate which is lightly freckled and cleaned. Stock retains nearly all of its orig rubbed oil finish, grain open and slightly raised, with a number of light marks, and a few a bit heavier. Checkering is very lightly worn. There is a slight compression and crack in wood at rear of action tang. Bore is exceptional, bright, sharp, and shiny throughout. Action is smooth. Possibly one of the finest examples of this classic rifle extant. Most have been converted to .375 H&H. 4-45901 (6,000-9,000) – Lot 2489

I think a fair price, including commission, is 12-15K USD.

Does Kynoch use Bertram brass? I ask because the rims look are different.

I understood that it was Bertram brass used in the 'new' Kynoch cartridge range but their website says that "All new tolling (sic) has been produced to draw cases from military specification brass stock to the original 'KYNOCH' drawings and dimensions, but with modern Boxer primers".

Of course this could still mean that it is the Bertram tooling and process and not necessarily Kynoch's own. They have "standardised" on Woodleigh bullets for their ammunition.

Re: .350 Rigby

Anyone ever form a .350 Rigby case? posted by Bonanza

Yes, I formed twenty last Sunday evening. I turned the belts of of some .375 H&H cases and ran them thru my sizer.
I see also that Midway has a special order Quality Cartridge for a delivery date toward the end of September. Looks like I will take advantage of that as well.
