I finally got my Ruger No. 1 in .405Win. and it is a real pig thumper ! The other S/S I like to use are Colt-Sharps and Browning 1885 both in .30/06 and a Browning 1885 in .223Rem. but the "Best Calibre" would be the .223Rem only because it is suited for most of my hunting ie-Fox,Rabbit,Crowe,'Roo,Goat. The "Classic" S/S I would like is a Farky in .450/.400 3 1/4" maybe one day!

P.S

I forgot to mention the Sportco-Martini in .22LR !
