Due to some questionable ignorance on my part I have ended up with 2-.416 Ruger rifles. I will keep my custom Mark X and offer up this unfired Guide Gun that has only been arm chair cycled enough to smooth the action. The rifle has Alaska Arms extended floor plate, AA’s 1 inch QD rings, and a Leupold Vari-X 3iii 1.5-5 x 20 scope mounted. The rifle will be shipped in the original box with factory accessories as purchased including the original floor plate and rings. $1600 + $40 shipping to lower 48 my FFL to yours.

Forgot to mention that I removed the action and added a little TruOil to a couple of bare spots on the wood that the factory scrimped on. I also sealed the wood under the extenders/butt pad.
 
There’s a mag extension for these rifles?
Yes, made by Alaska Arms. They are finely made, and the owner of Alaska Arms is a great guy - he helped my dumb ass get it installed on a Sunday morning. Definitely worth looking into

this is news to me.
 
This is an excellent deal on a nice rig. If I had a goos supply of brass set in id buy it for sure. Easy $800 of stuff with thr gun. I have an extended magazine plate on my sons 375 ruger and it works great. Morris at Alaska Arms is a great guy to do business with

I wonder if this will work with the RUGER RSM (416 Rigby Cartridge) that was in production around 20 years ago?
 
I wonder if they can make the extra capacity floor plate for M98.
 
@ftrovato unfortunately it won’t fit the rms action. The rms is a magnum length and the guide gun is a long action. I have an Alaska version with the house overmoulded stock. I like the guide gun option better. Nice rifle
 
TTT
Would also trade + $$ for a Ruger #1 .450-.400.

Very nice. Is the muzzle brake removable?

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
