My reprint of the Manton & Co. catalogue of 1925 (their Centenary year) list the .350 Magnum Rigby-Mauser on page 73, which I could photograph for you if you wish. The price including a case and cleaning implements was 950 rupees in India. At that time there were 15 rupees to one British Pound, making the price £63.333 pounds then, before purchase tax. Today that equates to £1500 or US$ 2,000 or so.

It was claimed to fire a 225 grain bullet at 2,600 fps.
