Ruger No.1 picture thread

[ratgunner]

I don't own one yet,still saving up.Of course if I had the money then it would take awhile to decide on what caliber.So till then how about some pix to drewl over ?Show 'em if ya got 'em.

Here is my #1 alongside my Browning Highwall for comparison sake. The Ruger is chambered in .270 Weatherby Magnum and the Browning in .22-250.

[ratgunner]

Very nice, thanks for sharing.You must be the only member that owns one.lol.

Unfortunately I had to sell this #1s several months ago, as money is tight on an LTDI income, over the years I have owned two Ruger #1's, I had a Ruger #1b in 7mm Rem Mag and this one, a Ruger #1s in .338 Win Mag. No I didn't need a .338 to harvest the Whitetail but thats what was in my hands when the Buck appeared. My shot only wrecked about 5# of meat as I shot it through the lungs & heart, busted a rib going in & another going out. The Buck immediately fell down dead, no tracking required.

Nice buck and nice rifle in a macho calibre.Thanks for sharing VerySavage.

[ratgunner]

That 270 has real nice wood.

I can post a pic of my 6mmPPC if you want to see what a rifle looks like after a hard life and abuse in Alaska

[gunman42782]

Nice rifles, guys! The #1 is one of the very few Rugers I have never had the honor of owning.

[Calvin Wiles]

Go ahead and post a picture of that 6mmPPC. I like to see guns that have some character from use.

[Hairtrigger]

Here is the gun with "character"
Knowing how few of these were made it bums me out the condition.



It makes you want to cry, don't it?

[Calvin Wiles]

To me a large part of the value of some guns that I have is the sentimental value of the memories behind them. I can imagine that the memories behind the gun would make it more valuable than some of the nice looking ones. I like guns that have been used and all of mine has.

Ratgunner, may I suggest the #1 RSI in 7X57? That's the full length stock with a 20" bbl. It's one classy looking rifle. The 7X57 is a very easy to shoot cartridge too. Frank

Don't have a no 1 but I have no 3 in 32-40 and a highwall 40-60 maynard
I built both these guns in the 80's to shoot cast bullets only
