I understand they made an uncatalogued one year run in stainless/laminate, might that be the difference? It would be a K1A.

The records I have do not indicate any 338 Win. Mag. made in stainless/laminate
in the 2000-2010 time period that Ruger produced them.

I have been trying to get them to make one for years! Your friend might have partaken in our online discussions. In talking with Jason Cloessner, he thinks he might sell 5 of them, I believe.:) This should have been done LONG ago, what a classic round in the No.1. My personal preference would be a 2...

Along about the 38 minute mark they talk about making a 348 Winchester No.1. I am, accordingly, one of the "five" guys that would want a 348. I think they are, to put it politely, "mistaken". Why this classic rimmed cartridge has never been chambered in that rifle is beyond me, e...

EGG-cellent!!! Nice catch.

The last one I saw sell was for about $1500 plus shipping and receiving. Don't remember if it had the box, but they don't come up for sale often, and are highly desirable. I have four, including one unmarked specimen. I know of two others for sale right about at $2000, but are sitting at that price....

Nice rifle! As an aside, I have hinted around about a 23 inch barrel length rifle for a long time. Glad to see they did a 25 inch and something different! I didn’t think it would be that hard to do.
