Here is my Ruger new model Single-Six .22 LR/.22 magnum with a grip frame off a Ruger Super Blackhawk .44 Magnum. I like the larger grip frame because I have fairly large hands. Obviously the larger grip frame requires different grip panels as well.

Nice rifle !

Never been scoped by my own rifles, despite many rounds through some hard kickers. Got cut once with my uncle's lightweight T/C Contender 45/70 carbine with stout loads and a scope that was not set to proper eye relief for me.

Yes and no, the Single-Six, Blackhawk, and Super Blackhawk share the same "footprint" for the grip frame's attachment to the receiver/frame. So grip frames will swap between the different sized New Models. The actual serialized frames are differently sized between the models. The Bearcats...

Numrich has a steel unblued grip frame that would work: https://www.gunpartscorp.com/products/721590b The Ruger New Model grip frames are pretty much interchangeable, I put a steel Super Blackhawk grip frame with the square back trigger guard on my Single-Six. Ignore the "not for 7.5 or 10...

The actual frame that surrounds the cylinder and barrel is threaded into is the receiver and is serialized. Grip frames are unregulated and commonly swapped, many used and aftermarket options, at least in US. Google RW grip frames.

The grip frame is not the serialized frame, and at least in the US is unregulated.

The Ruger grip frames are often found for sale on Ebay in the US, not sure how feasible it would be to source one out of country. Maybe have someone here buy one. Not sure what you would be willing to pay, but this company makes beautiful brass grip frames. RW grip frames.

I agree it is a good value, not sure if I agree on perfect condition. It has had hideous muzzle brakes added after manufacture that is no doubt holding back the sale and value. I have watched this double for the last few days, and am confident it would be fetching higher bids if it was in...

I shot my zebra with my PHs Krieghoff 500.

I am in Alaska, and I have seen beautiful rifles reduced to rusty relics with grey stocks. Definitely aware of bush Alaskans philosophy on firearms and tools in general. I have some stories !

No, I dont have the synthetic stock. I should have kept it given the collectability aspect these rifles have seen the last few years. I had every intention of hunting with this rifle and the synthetic held no appeal to me. I sold it on Ebay to offset some of the cost for wood furniture.

The .35 Whelen in the 7600 Carbine is a combination that is tough to beat for thick timber hunting but the ability to reach out if needed better than most traditional woods rifles. My intention was to use it, but since the demise of Remington they have become too valuable lately for me to...

I definitely would like to learn and see more about the 505 ! Looks like a very nice rifle. 3+1 capacity ?
