Here is a weird 1.

I was perusing Gunbroker and this one popped up. I was aware of the 275 Rigby/7x57 but not that Ruger ever chambered for that designation, nor the odd serial number DACA 078. This sure isn't my first rodeo with Rugers but I don't know what to think about it.

A special of some sort done for the Dallas Arms Collectors Association maybe?

 

[Ruger1nut]

It is in fact a series done for the Dallas Arms Collectors Association. As I recall it was the first Ruger ever did for an outside group with their own serial numbers.

It is the only one I know of so marked for the 275 Rigby

I wrote him. According to him, it's dirt and dust build up.....

One ring, what I'm assuming to be a EER scope perched up front over the removed rear sight..... Unique set-up to say the least...

 

[mattsbox99]

Quite interesting, thanks for the info. Other than the rear sight butchering and stock wear it would be a nice rifle, but wouldn't command any premium for me.

 

[singleshot]

$700.00 isn't a bad price to me, but I sure wouldn't get into a bidding match over it.

 

[singleshot]

And let the bidding begin... It's a shame neither this one or the other one that's listed has a box...

 

[Greg Mercurio]

It's really hard to believe that rifle sold for $865. Jeez, I guess the economy really IS improving. :roll:

There were only 100? Some with markings on teh action flat and apparently others without embellishment.(over runs)?

 

[El Numero Uno]

The club marking was a personal thing with the DACA member; they could get it or not. I have had 2 with it and more without the logo!

Aha! That covers it! What do we think will occur with the 250 Savage #1..........? 8)
