Re: Maybe a #1 in 450NE

Being one of the chosen few who now has sufficient time to spend on the Internet looking for neat (ie gun) stuff & drooling over the new catalogues & updates to the Gunmakers sights, especially as it is around -45 C here, there is a trend I noticed that may be of interest to some of the members here:

A couple of years ago, Hornady brought out ammunition in .405 Winchester, which, in their catalogue & on theri web-site, was photographed in front of a Ruger No. 1; a year or so later, Voila! Ruger offers #1's in .405 W.C.F.

Same for 9.3 x 74R, ditto for .450/400 N.E. & Now this year they have introduced .450 NE 3 1/4" ammunition. I just sent them a letter, along with the medium rings I got with my new #1S 45-70 to exchange for some double offset ones, asking if they planned to introduce this chambering in their #1 & will post their response, once received.
