The #1s are funny critters. Out of the box some are bugholers while others seem to scatter.

I've installed a few of the Hicks Accurizers and had varying success. Some of the difference may be due to less time put in dialing the device to the loads.

A simple O ring has been effective on a couple of Rugers I've played with.

My most accurate SS was a #1 in 257 Roberts. This was an old Ruger that shot well right out of the box. I wasn't as good a shooter back then but it would still turn in 8s for me. A real shooter would have probably turned in 5s.

And, yes, I sold the damn thing, something I used to do too much of as a youngster.

Some of the rifles mentioned here are pretty impressive. It's nice when one can have the beauty of a SS with all the accuracy a hunter could want. Just doesn't get better than that,eh?

Mickey, that #3 has some fine furniture, my friend. Did you do the stock work yourself?

Regards.
