I didn't even know that Bill Ruger himself, had authorised the building of them.
Bill Ruger allowed a small number of gunmakers to buy "virgin" red label monoblocs for the purpose of building double rifles.
Ron Webb built a few Red Label DR's, some of which used virgin monoblocs, here in Australia back in the late 80's and into the 90's.
Jack Miller (Aus) also built a scoped Red Label DR in .375 H&H flanged magnum.
He used one of the early blued 20G frames.
