Re: Ruger #1 to 450 NE?

Got the rifle back from SSK. They did a great job. Functions, and shoots great! Only had time to fire it 10 times. I now know to use a case filler. I fired 5 shots without it ( load is Hornady 500gr/105gr H4831SC/F215M ), and I could hear the hammer/firing pin strike on 2 of them before the ka-boom. At fifty yards, the 5-shot group was a tad over 2". The five rounds I fired that were topped off with a scoop of Puff-Lon, all went bang when they should have, and you could easily cover them all with a 50 cent piece. Three of them were in one elongated hole. The sights are NECG's big white bead, and rear peep.

Also, I put a 13oz Breako tube in the butt, which balances the rifle at the reciever. It was too muzzle heavy for me.
