Pretty tough to avoid giving the Ruger #1s a good hard look. Strong, versatile, and custom 'smiths can be found.

I have one in 500 NE and love the beast.

Having said that, a Winchester or Browning Hi Wall in 50-140 would be very cool! 34" barrel with an elevator receiver sight and a globe up front. Combined with a good set of shootin' stix, such an arm would be a hoot

Let us know what you decide. That will give us a chance to cheer and jeer!

Later.
