Rigby Mauser 98 .303 British
14/03/14 02:14 AM

A few years back I was at the range shooting a Ruger M-77 30-06 with a cheap Bushnell 4X scope ....The rifle was accurate and I was shooting small groups at 200 yards. The only people there that day were a father and son pair who were sighting in a.303 British sporter. I got the idea it was their only rifle. They didn`t seem to know much about guns but they sure didn`t like their rifle. They complained about it being out of date, not having a scope, etc. They really liked my Ruger and the accurate shooting I was doing with it. I had a look at their rifle. It was a Rigby Mauser 98 sporter in .303 British. It had all the correct Rigby, London markings and was in what appeared to be very good condition, a bit dirty and greasy but all original, good blue, good wood, etc. I had never seen one. When they saw that I liked their rifle, they suggested a swap...my Ruger and Bushnell scope for their Rigby .303, and maybe they could throw in some cash....but I just couldn`t take advantage of them...I told them that their rifle was worth a lot more than mine and I didn`t do the deal. I regret it a bit. I sold that Ruger a long time ago and don`t miss it, but I still remember that Rigby Mauser .303.
