Ruger No. 1 Tropical 450/400 N.E. W/Leupold 1.5-4x20mm Scope

Do you happen to know what weight or contour barrel is on this rifle? Most were C weight barrels, but a few were D weight.
Does the "C/D" represent the outside barrel diameter? If you care to share ..

It appears, the 458's, 416's & 375 share the same, I have seen these 450's with slimmer barrel profiles.
ie. internet pic, Assuming this is a "C"?

Found this on a Ruger forum.

Barrel Profile C, barrel at muzzle .750” diameter. Model # 11325
Barrel Profile D, barrel at muzzle .815” diameter and only 100 made. Model # 11385
 
Its 11324, not 11325 which is a 25-06.
The one I had some time ago was the C barrel and kicked the snot out of me. Would give me recoil headache after about 6 rounds.
Ruger really should put better pads on their big boy rifles.
