Hey Kyle, I got the deal on the 25-06. Soon, I'll be the proud owner of my first Ruger No. 1

However, I am going to disagree with you about the recoil. I have some serious experience with the .375 H&H Magnum in a Model 70 Winchester that weighs nearly ten pounds. The extra weight is a PLUS, not a minus, when it comes to the heavy recoil of a .375 H&H.

I agree ! " The extra weight is a PLUS"
I 'm the owner of a Winch 70 Safari Express and Ruger #1 Tropical , the both .375 H&H, and few time ago I owned a .458WM.

I used to have a Ruger No.1 chambered for .220 Swift. Damn, that round was so fast that the hole was in the target before you could pull the trigger. It was a accurate rifle with an exceptionally beautiful grained piece of wood for the stock. Like a dummy, I traded it in on another gun back in the early 90s....kinda' wished I held onto it.

Great looking rifle. I have an older red pad 375. You'll love it. It is a great shooting gun.
