[QUOTE="benchracer, post: 1213057, member: 22069"] I believe the .416 Rigby you are talking about belongs to Tikkamike. I was in on the discussion of scope mounts for that rifle. What I am referring to relative to the #1V is that it dispenses with the quarter rib and places the scope mounts directly on the barrel. For a couple of reasons, the quarter rib is believed to be a source of accuracy problems in the #1's. I have never encountered those issues during the type of shooting I do with my #1, but I believe it noteworthy that Ruger went with a different setup on a model intended for more precision and higher volume shooting. For that reason, I believe it to be advisable to go with the #1V type setup for a long range rig, where the emphasis is on precision. [/QUOTE]
