Description:
.416 Rigby– Serial No. 10591 – Swarovski Z6i 1–6x24  Certified Safari-Ready™

John Rigby & Co. Big Game rifle, Single Square Bridge configuration, chambered in .416 Rigby. Manufactured in 2015 and professionally upgraded for enhanced dangerous game field performance. The price has recently been adjusted and represents one of the best values currently available in a .416 Rigby dangerous game rifle.
This rifle remains in excellent, essentially unused condition with original metal finish intact and a beautifully figured walnut stock showing no field wear. The rifle has not been used beyond professional inspection and testing.
Built on the Rigby-Mauser Magnum action, the Big Game SSB retains classic London lines with controlled-round feed, large non-rotating extractor, and magnum-length action engineered specifically for the .416 Rigby cartridge.
Professional Upgrades by MNR Custom Guns
  • Original flag-style safety converted to a three-position safety to allow proper operation with a mounted scope
  • Traditional case coloring applied to the action, recoil lugs and grip cap
  • Talley bases and rings professionally installed
  • Swarovski optic professionally mounted and aligned
The three-position safety conversion allows safe bolt operation with the scope mounted — a meaningful functional improvement for a working dangerous game rifle.
The barrel measures 24.25 inches and is fitted with express sights and quarter rib. Length of pull is 14.5 inches. Weight is 11.6 pounds with the mounted scope — an appropriate field weight for the .416 Rigby, offering stability under recoil without compromising handling.
Mounted is a new Swarovski Z6i 1–6x24, widely regarded as one of the premier dangerous game optics available. With true 1x capability, bright illumination, and exceptional optical clarity, it provides rapid acquisition at close range while maintaining flexibility for follow-up shots.
The .416 Rigby remains one of the most proven dangerous game cartridges in existence, delivering deep penetration and authoritative performance on buffalo, lion, and elephant while remaining manageable in a properly weighted rifle.
The rifle includes its original Rigby documentation and factory test target.

Certified Safari-Ready™
This rifle has been evaluated under our Certified Safari-Ready™ protocol.
Each Certified Safari-Ready™ firearm is test-fired to confirm safe operation, reliable feeding and extraction, proper safety engagement, and practical hunting accuracy.
Sights, mounts, and optics—when present—are inspected for correct installation and field suitability. The rifle’s overall configuration is reviewed to ensure it is appropriate for demanding dangerous game conditions.
The designation signifies that the rifle has been professionally assessed and prepared for immediate field use. Certified Safari-Ready™ reflects the rifle’s condition and function at the time of inspection and test-firing and is not a guarantee of future performance.

Detailed video walk-through available by appointment for serious inquiries.

Shipping and insurance is an estimate only. Final cost will be determined based on destination, declared value, and method of shipment. Adult signature required.
