Steve my rifle is NOT a factory Ruger offering but a total custom built by Leeper. He used a McGowan barrel for the build.
It was in fact the inspiration for Clay from Prophet River Firearms to ask about a limited run and Ruger ended up bringing them out as a regular run that year .
The conversation spilled over to CGN and lots of guys said if they were available they would buy one.
It all started here when I asked the campfire crew to help me pick out the details for a custom hunting rifle because I could not shoot my big 45/70 long range target gun anymore and we used that as the platform .
I’ll post some pics of it later on when I get a chance .
It is actually a no3 (but has had everything internal and external changed )
