Ruger Number One .220 Swift
Description: Offered from my personal collection is a spectacular custom Ruger Number One created by craftsmen that are considered to be among the best in their field. This rifle was formerly owned by Jack Slack, who was the well known Vice President of Sales for Leupold & Stevens. This rifle has been pictured in the Leupold catalog on more than one occasion since its completion. The metal and stock work was accomplished by the well known custom gun maker and designer of the Dakota rifle, Pete Grisel. The classic stock is made from a beautiful piece of California Walnut showing 100% fiddleback grain from end to end and spectacular color streaks throughout. The equally spectacular engraving was completed by master engraver Lee Griffiths. When aksed what I wanted engraved, I asked for a Bobcat and Fox to adorn the flats of the action. Lee stated that they were 2 of the most difficult animals to engrave, but he accepted my request. The gold animal inlays are of the best quality. The animal detail and layout is as good as you will find. The rings, finger lever, and action also have scroll work for accent. Ruger No. 1 is inlayed in gold on the receiver top. The grip cap is a steel, single screw cap. Butt pad is a thin, solid black, basket weave pattern by Pachmayer. Swivel studs are quick detachable type. This rifle is capable of 1/2 inch groups. I can provide load data and original test targets from when the rifle was completed in 1978. The rifle is very accurate and it remains in pristine, near new, eccellent condition. would be a great addition to any collection. It is truely a useable fine work of art. I can provide additional photos, if desired.
