Pretty sure the Shootist guns had SHXXX for serials. I wasn't talking about the mistake guns ;)

I believe this is Jim Taylors gun, IIRC. I don't believe it has a separate s/n range, either..... ??????

DACA No. 1s, the very first special prefix gun (if I remember right).

I have the NRA 7mm08 Hawkeye, NRA0975 with a black walnut stock.

The first one I know of was the NRA prefixed Number one NRA Hunt of a Lifetime rifle made in 1977.

Of the top of my head, there are also a few 10/22's that you missed:

RRR
USST
USII
and USA12-
