Howdy fellers. I just found this forum. I currently own a .416 Rigby #1 and a 45-70 #1. Love them both but have been thinking for some time about converting a #1 to .450-3.25. I know that there are several places that do it. I have hear the rumors that Ruger is going to bring out a .450NE as a production rifle now. Does anyone know if this is true yet? reflex264
