Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Custom Rifles & Wildcats NULA paint scheme

284 was very tempting for sure, classic NULA chambering. My decision to go with 7mm-08 instead was one of practicality - components and ammo more available, also I have a Howa alpine in 7mm-08 that can serve as a nice backup/loaner rifle.

284 is cool and was very tempting though.

And speaking of tempting, I toy with the idea of ordering a second NULA in 223 or maybe 6.5 grendel. Fern camo in maple leaf colors could be fun. I'd probably piss Melvin off by asking for a threaded muzzle on that one.

⬆️ The rare Model 42; unique collaboration between Mel Forbes and William Ruger. Only example known to exist. Mel wanted light; Bill wanted stainless. The rest is history.

Nice paint work Ken.
