Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Single Shots Just an odd-ball project..

This is my "make it the way I want it" project..

Ruger No. 1 25/06 K1-B ... Started of with the laminated furniture. For a weight savings, I swapped all the laminate to walnut and to further reduce the weight I decided to go with the AH forearm. I also swapped the stainless pistol grip cap over to the walnut so it would look right.

Then I increased the weight by putting a hubble telescope on it. Only this one is the Leupold 4.5X14 CDS scope with the 50mm objective lense with the cut-out. This fit great with the 4B rings.

With the AH forearm, the barrel appears so long, it looks like it needs a flag on it..

Overall, I'm happy with the look. I will be taking out Wednesday to put a few rounds through it.




In this picture, you can see that the front objective bell is as close as I prefer to have it to the ring and the cut out on the scope is actually over the front of the quarter rib.

One of a kind, for sure. Enjoy and share your experiences with us.

WHERE the heck did you find that AH forend? I've been looking for one for months!

Wanna trade for a 1B forend?

if the "B" forearm will fit the 25/06 barrel and you don't mind a few handling marks, sure I'll swap ya.. The AH forearm I've got has some pretty nice figure, it's just got a few marks by the schnab end that are less than "pretty"...
