Rigby Big Game .416 Rigby 250th Anniversary eddition #10/250

Description:
Created to commemorate a quarter millennium of gunmaking excellence, the Rigby Big Game 250th Anniversary Edition is a fitting tribute to the legacy of one of the world's most storied rifle makers. Limited to just 250 rifles worldwide, this exceptional example, numbered 10 of 250, represents a rare opportunity to own a piece of Rigby history while carrying a rifle built to the exacting standards demanded by modern dangerous game hunters.

Built upon Rigby’s renowned Double Square Bridge Magnum Mauser action, the rifle showcases the timeless design elements that have defined the brand for generations. The barrel is elegantly engraved with “J. Rigby & Co. London England” in traditional Old English script and is fitted with a barrel band sling swivel and Rigby’s classic Express sights. The sighting arrangement features an elevation-adjustable front bead and a rear sight with one standing and multiple folding leaves, providing rapid target acquisition at varying distances.

The stock is crafted from select walnut, carefully shaped and hand-finished to complement the rifle’s classic safari profile. Traditional hand-cut checkering ensures a secure grip, while the oil-finished stock highlights the natural figure and character of the wood. Every detail reflects Rigby’s dedication to craftsmanship, durability, and timeless elegance.

Chambered in the powerful .416 Rigby, a cartridge synonymous with African dangerous game hunting, this rifle delivers exceptional performance on the largest and most formidable game animals. Revered for its combination of power, reliability, and manageable recoil, the .416 Rigby has remained a benchmark for professional hunters and sportsmen since its introduction in 1911.

As a limited-production anniversary model, this rifle combines collectability with true field capability. Whether destined for a hunting camp in Africa or a place of honor in a distinguished collection, Rigby Big Game 250th Anniversary Edition No. 10 of 250 stands as a celebration of 250 years of innovation, craftsmanship, and hunting tradition.
