I have a Gold Label and it fits me well enough. It has surprisingly nice wood. It is quite versatile given that it has Briley thin wall choke tubes, it will shooot steel, and it will handle 3 inch shells. I feel I certainly got a lot of gun for the money. I also have some fine European and American doubles that I use more often than the Gold Label, but in general they cost a lot more and are not as versatile nor as modern. I think Ruger deserves credit for accomplishing quite a lot with the gold label.
