Show off your Ruger No.1's

I was lucky to find a Ruger no 3 in 44 mag and it s my favorite carry gun for Deer.Light weight and compact it carries like a dream.Too bad Ruger didn t make more in that cal if they had it still might be made today.
 
With my .243 RSI the Roberts didn't make sense for me...


That is a statement that I made less than a year ago... and here I am posting my new"ish" pair of No.1-RSI sibling's... the "little brother" a .257 Roberts on top and the "big brother" a 7X57 on bottom;




My reasoning was that I have an M77 MKII RSI in .243, so I sold my No.1-RSI .243 when I found this Roberts. The medium action cartridges make more sense, or rather, the short action cartridges make less sense, in a single shot platform... well, that is how it went in my head anyway...

Beautiful. The # 1 is just like a pretty girl to me, I just can't stop looking. I'm up to three myself now, a 1B in .270 Wthby, 1A in 35 Whelen and a recently acquired 1A (off the EE) in 7x57 and I'm pretty sure there will be others in my future.

Did you buy Potashminer's 7X57?

The No.1-A .35 Whelen is a peach... I am making a No.1-RSI .308 X 57 at present.

All of these No 1 pics caused me to buy another rifle I did not need LOL. I have a No 1s in 9.3x62 in the mail from Prophet River. I can't wait! Pretty happy with the 2013 prices too. I love my 35 Whelen bolt action I built so I thought I may as well stay with some nice medium bores. Hey you never know when you need to shoot a buffalo here in Saskatchewan. Lol.
