Re: Ruger No. 1 incoming, .450-400

The best shooting #1's I've had and/or shot, were .375H&H, .218 Bee, 7x57, .25/06 Varmint & .30/06. Each of those shot 1/2" or better. Only the .218 had received any 'accuracy work', while the others only experienced freeing up the forend touching the barrel, which is just normal automatic change for any #1. One .375 H&H didn't care that the forestock was touching the barrel - still shot sub inch with factory 300gr. Silver Tips.

Most guys either love them or hate them - it's the experience which dictates the way the romance goes - sweet or sour.

I've owned or shot only 1/2 doz. or 8 and every one of them was a love afair I didn't want to end - but did, eventually.

Oh my - when I couldn't afford one they were $175.00 and had almost exhibition grade wood - loved those #1's of the early 70's.
