Isn't right-wing libertarianism ancap?

No, Right-wing libertarianism is a range between the standard right-wing libertarianism, neo-conservative infiltrators, and anarcho-capitalists and a few other groups that aren't important.

The two mainstream branches of Right-wing libertarianism:

The standard right-wing libertarianism is more about opposing social welfare and government regulations than conservatives, many are pro-choice , pro-marijuana, anti-war (Non-aggression pact), against NSA mass surveillance, and against the war on drugs. The type of people that wants a government, but do not want it to interfere in their lives. They complain about person freedom, individuality, and the two main party system.

Neo-conservative infiltrators- They call themselves libertarians, but like the neo-liberal infiltrators are trying to bring in check the libertarians who support anti-war policies and try to get them to support American interventions. They can be spotted since many of them are members of the Cato Institute.
