300 win mag McGowen BBL?
Came across an interesting piece. It is a Ruger #1 rebarreled with a 28" heavy contour McGowen bbl in 300 win mag. Can anyone tell me about these barrels, good or bad?

It would be a heavy piece to carry, but boy it hangs nice!

Harry Mc Gowen barrels are excellent.

Harry makes excellent barrels!! I have had many and they all shoot! REALLY good. Sounds like a heck of a deal.

I'd take one of his barrels in a heart beat.


As usual just my $.02

Old age is a high price to pay for maturity!!! Some never pay and some pay and never reap the reward. Wisdom comes with age! Sometimes age comes alone..
