Gun Week just announced that Ruger is making the #1 in this caliber. I know people here have talked about these potential Rugers, BUT, has anyone seen one? I'd like to give a .450/400 #1 a try, as I sure cannot afford a proper double in that caliber! LLS  | ||

Gentlemen: I am curious as to what bore dimensions Ruger has decided to standardize. Thanks! Glenn | |||

Anyone know how long the barrel will be and how much they will weight? I would like to buy one. I hope they come out for sale in April like some one AR said they would. | |||

Knowing Ruger, the gun will probable make it out before April....2010! Roger Kehr Kehr Engraving Company (360)456-0831 | |||

Somehow I tend to agree with Scrollcutter. Companys advertise and don't deliver until enough orders come in to make it economical. Curses!!! LLS | |||

I am not so sure about that. When did they start advertising the 9.3x74R #1's? They are now available and are a very nice package at that. I am hoping the 450-400 is the same configuration. Woody | |||

Boom stick, I won't rechamber my .45-70 #1, or my .45-70 M/B1886, but the idea of doing the deed to a .405 is tempting. Going to a show this weekend where I'll have to drool over several .450-400 double rifles. I hope my heart will be strong. LLS | |||

Viola? My grandma is named "Viola." The 405 Winchester Ruger No.1 is indeed a sweet idea for simply rechambering to 450/400 Nitro Express 3". I will stamp that rifle barrel with "Viola" whenever I get to it, after X-ing out the "405 Win" on the barrel, but maybe Ruger will beat me to it. 2008 maybe?  | |||

Yes, I saw an African hunting video on one of the Outdoor Channels last week, where Craing Boddington was hunting Cape Buffalo accompanied by a lady hunter. She was using a Ruger No. 1 in .450/.400. She got her M'Bogo with it.... Now, I don't know if hers was a custom job, a special run, or a caliber recently added to the regular lineup! "Bitte, trinks du nicht das Wasser.
