Anyone ever see a Ruger No.1 in 257 Wby?

I've been thinking about a pronghorn/ long range mule deer rig and I think this would be ideal, does anyone ever know if they were made (I've tried to find out but can't find it anywhere) or how hard it would be to rechamber and rebarrel a no.1? Thanx!

I bought one a few years ago that had been origionally chambered as a 25-06.

I purchased the rifle to use it as a donor action for a build but before tearing it apart, I bought some brass and tested it out.

The gun sprayed bullets so I ripped it apart and its going to be rebarreled as a 260 Rem.

Wby brass is too pricey for me and I have a personal hate for freebore.

A 260 Rem will have longer barrel life and reloading components will be a lot cheaper.

Had one in 270wby should have kept that one
