Harrington & Richardson H&R Ultra Rifle .30-06 Single-Shot Break-Action, 22-inch Heavy Barrel, Laminated Stock (2004)
This H&R Ultra Rifle is a single-shot, break-action .30-06 Springfield built in 2004 in Gardner, Massachusetts. It features a 22-inch heavy steel barrel with a recessed crown, a laminated hardwood stock with cut checkering, and no iron sights. A long Weaver/Picatinny-style scope base and a hammer spur extension are installed, giving this example a clean, purpose-built configuration.
The rifle uses an external hammer and a top-mounted barrel release lever positioned just behind the barrel extension. The blued/black oxide finish over steel components and the laminated hardwood furniture give it a durable, classic presentation aligned with the Ultra Rifle line.
Handling characteristics are supported by the laminated hardwood stock and forend, a ventilated rubber recoil pad, and a front sling swivel stud. The length of pull measures 14.25 inches. Capacity is one round.
Factory markings include MANUFACTURED IN GARDNER, MA U.S.A. and U.S. Pat. No. 3,988,848 on the receiver, confirming origin and design lineage.

The 22-inch heavy/bull steel barrel with recessed crown and excellent bore condition speaks to careful maintenance and a setup oriented around consistency. The absence of factory iron sights matches the installed long scope base for a clean top profile.
The break-action design uses an external hammer and a top-mounted release lever located just behind the barrel extension, enabling straightforward operation. The blued/black oxide finish covers both the receiver and barrel, paired with steel construction.
The laminated hardwood stock and forend include cut checkering and a ventilated rubber recoil pad, with a front sling swivel stud for carry setup. A 14.25-inch length of pull supports a comfortable fit for most shooters.
Receiver markings note manufacture in Gardner, Massachusetts, USA, along with U.S. Pat. No. 3,988,848. This example dates to 2004, aligning it with later-production Ultra Rifles from H&R’s Gardner facility.
