Montana Rifle Company builds Dangerous Game Rifle...article
#217465 - 02/10/12 07:35 AM

By The Editors

This rifle looks plain, is built to last, and hits hard. How hard? Well, it's chambered for the horrifying 505 Gibbs, the appalling .406 Weatherby and the serious 416 Rigby. What more could you ask for from a dangerous game rifle? Get all the details here.

With the front sling swivel on the fore end of the stock what were they smoking?

Why is it dangerous? I though they were pretty safe.

They'll sell some at those very reasonable prices. That said, the trend these days in gun sales is for AR style "Black" rifles. There isn't a huge market for these specialized big bores in the USA, at least.

Really?? My thought was that with Africa still being quite popular, this would be a niche for this type of firearm...several manufacturers apparently feel similar as Winchester is dong the Safari Model again as well in 458, 416 Rem and .375H&H along with Kimber..

Maybe I am wrong ..guess time will tell..

If you are hankering for an ultra big bore that you don't have to monkey with, that would be it.

He did say 3 down in the mag, was that just for the Gibbs. I would of thought you would get 4 down in the 416 Rigby.
