Varmint Guy & others.....
I was interested in this rifle also and stopped in to take a look. I was lucky & the crowd was thin. :-)
My take based on what I saw is that the rifle was rebarreled to create a #1 tropical chambered in
300 H&H. I did not and didn't ask to take the forearm off, didn't need to! It is a none prefix
#1 w/red pad, of course, decent wood. Whomever found or scabbed onto the Tropical front sight, and
a Ruger quarter rib to make it look almost right. If one had to have a #1 in 300 H&H here it is, but overpriced for
what it is IMO.
Still might buy it though......just cause
