I noticed your msg about the 416 Taylor. My husband was a Ruger enthusiast and in 1997 he had a 458 Ruger rebarreled to a 416 Taylor. They did the work at the Prescott, AZ site. I am interested in knowing more about value of this gun. Can you give me some information?

It is interesting that the factory would rebarrel one to .416 Taylor.
That said, not being factory original I think the price would be better than a standard rifle in .458, but I do not think would approach the price of the factory originals made in 1975 and 1976.
