Looks like I'm going to bed one of these darlings. It's suffering, poor grouping.

I recall seeing some info on bedding the forearms of these rifles but don't remember any details. Any other information on how to tweak a #1 for accuracy would be appreciated.

thanks,
Pat

Check out Arthur Brown Company. http://www.eabco.com They specialize in making Ruger #1's more accurate. I had them build one for me from a barreled action. It shoots awsome. They free float the forearm and put in a new barrel and trigger. The shape of the new barrels gets rid of any stress from the scope mounts. They have a 0 stress barrel seating process. I have 2 Ruger #1 and I am going to send the stock one in to be done as well. Check out all of the information their web site.

its not a hard job and has been detailed several times over. Just relieve the pressure on the barrel channel and glas bed off the hanger.

Thanks, fellas... It all looks very straight forward.

I'll get on with the project !!
