Ruger # 1 .450 Nitro
Been looking for a # 1 in the classic .450 Niro, does anyone know where one might be found?

I believe Ruger did a special run of these rifles in what they call the "Boddington Adventure series" or something to that effect.

jackguthary,

You could wait for the ruger Boddington series to come out.
Or buy a .458 Win mag. (~ $700) have a gunsmith clean up the chamber with a 450 NE chamber reamer (~ $200 ).
And in a few weeks you can have one for under $1000 bucks.
I think the Boddington guns go for more than that.
Mine shoots like a champ.
