I very vaguely recall from discussions on the old long defunct "ShooterStalk"web-site's BPCR forums that the Miller F was an attempt to work around the BPCR/NRA competition rules by creating a version of the Farrow to make a Miller with an "external-hammer".  As best I recall it was too much Miller and too little Farrow to pass the rules-nazis; so production petered out.

It was my understanding in talking with Cyle Miller when I made a deposit on a Miller F action that 50 receivers had only been EDM in the rough.  While on the waiting list Miller Arms was sold to Dakota Arms and Cyle was hired by them.  I visited him several times at Dakota to see how things were progressing on my action but nothing was ever put in production before going bankrupt.  I filed all the necessary court papers to attempt to get my deposit back and had 'kissed" it off as a loss.  About 4 years later a envelope arrived with a check for my deposit. I think the actual action production was in the high 30's when Miller sold to Dakota.  I was able to purchase a Miller F from a friend of mine and it is a beautiful gun.  It had to be near one of the last one's made.  The serial number on mine is not in order as it was numbered to match an original Farrow my friend had.  Mine is in 40-65 and I will agree that the triggers are tricky.  I cratered the breech block insert shooting large pistol primers and had to have a new one made.  I heat treated the new one and have not had any problems.  Joe, I will try to remember to show you my Miller F at the "Summer Heat Match" this summer.

Greg,

  I had ordered the 22 conversion when placing the original order. However that and the rifle never materialized, I am pleased to have the Model F and enjoy shooting it on occasion and appreciate the unique design.
