Probly a Ruger 77 tang safety with locking blue bolt in as good conditions as I could find. Aged Purple receiver would be nice. Have someone that knows what they’re doing do the trigger and bedding; maybe in an old Ultralight wood stock arrived redone in a classic finish flavor and have a real classic. If the barrel didn’t turn out replace it with a reasonably priced exchange. Maybe E.R.Shaw cut a little long to as leave it maybe 23” after lapping. Brand leaves some slack as to what you find important to spend the coin on. The short ultralight stock with a slightly longish barrel lends itself to to Old English stalking style but far from being new. Let’s leave new or nearly so ideas till tomorrow.
