That is a nice one! I have two, one in .45-90 and .38-55. Great shooters and certainly fully capable with Ruger level loads. You did well. Pete.

Pete,

Georgious rifle! Something to be proud of.

Now a dumb question; shouldn't the tang sight stand vertical rather than tilted back?

And "they" said son-in-laws weren't good for anything, but messing around with one's daughter(s).

That'll show 'em !
