Question was asked if the rifle was was sold and returned.
No it was not returned.
The person that intended to purchase it asked for a face to face transaction on X date. No problem. Then it was can we bump it back a little? Again no problem. Then it was having some unforeseen financial difficulties. So back up sale.
 
Good morning. Can you tell me what the "S-C" designation is? Also, the year manufactured? Are you the original owner?

Yes I am the original owner.
The S stands for medium sporter.
The C stands for C weight barrel.
Year manufactured should be 2011.

If you put it beside my Ruger No.1 H 450-400, which has a C weight barrel, it looks the same. Which basically makes this a No. H with a Medium Sporter tag. The only thing I can figure on the designation is the 45-70 is not a traditional African cartridge.
 
This is quite a deal I think. Aside from the Lipsey rifles, all of them have shorter barrels and do not balance as well. Not many of these around.

Hi Jon,
I saw your post for the .500 NE cases. Are these all brass or are they nickel plated? Hard for me to tell... sorry.
Thanks,
