Well, I found a Ruger no.1 barreled action in 45-70 for $500 (from friend). The barrel is a match grade by Bob West. I ordered a 26" Brux .257 Roberts barrel and contact John McLaughlin of Helena MT to do the metal work - barreling the action with scope mounts, barrel band sling swivel, and special forend pillar mount. Gun should be ready for the stocker by end of Summer.


ANyone need a precision 45-70 barrel?
