I like the x39, but somehow my mind puts it in a Handi-Rifle, not a Ruger No. 1.
The Handi Rifles did come out with 7.62x39 barrels. By the time I found and ALMOST bought a Handi barrel that was for sale in a LGS, there were rumors of folks having some troubles with the x39 barrels. Don’t remember what, possibly sloppy ammo dimensions or maybe misfires what with tough military primers??
Anyway I had my fun with a couple of SKS rifles. My Ruger No.1 in x39 is unfired as of now but I’m starting to get curious if it’s an accurate shooter or not🤔
