Re: 405

The 405 in a long throated Ruger No.1 or just a Ruger No. 1, for that matter is not the same gun as a .405 in a Win. M-95 by a long shot...

In a Ruger No. 1, I am sure you can duplicate a 400 gr. 450-400 at 2125 FPS, without even trying, and that is good enough to kill any animal on this earth encluding elephant with solids...

A Win. M-95 such as the Judges will certainly kill a buffalo with a 500 gr. bullet at 2000 FPS, hopefully. Well lets say 95% of the time!

I intend to have a M-95 then add a quarter rib, barrel band front sight, and swivel, custom stock it in nice Turkish, maybe add a Lyman lever sight and a silvers pad, fill it full of flat nose solids, it will be my walk about African back up gun..at least thats going to be my justifycation....
