What caliber and configuration would you like to see the Ruger No.1 offered in?

I'd be well set with No.1 Medium Sporters in 300 H&H, 9.3x74R, and 450/400 with a no thicker than necessary 28 inch barrel, serious fixed sights, case colored receiver, and a glorious walnut stock.

No 1 H stainless in 458 lott with an incredible piece of walnut would suit me fine....so much that I started carving my piece of walnut for my lott this morning. A return to the factory trigger that Moyers makes now wouldn't hurt either. The varmint model as a stainless in 257 weatherby wouldn't hurt either.

No.1 Stainless/Laminate in .577

577 ne with knock out circassian walnut

i have a .458 win mag #1h... in a couple weeks, i'm looking at a .375 h&h... i'm still waiting on the 9,3 x 74r....

9,3x74R, 10lbs, 28" medium taper barrel, 3-leaf express sight and barrel band sling swivel. Hooded ramp front with 1/8" ivory bead. 3X circassion walnut, bullet trap in buttstock, grip cap w/spare front sight. Color case-hardeneded winchester grey by Turnbull, and rust blued barrel. All fittings cased. And it's big twin brother in 550 Gibbs w/24" bbl @ 12lbs.

Oh, maybe a 17 Remington. No need for all this big stuff all the time.

My 9 pound shilen-barreled 9,3x74R:

I reckon a nice octagonal barrelled 45/120 Sharps would be nice

Holy toledo; I got one

Shrink the action to that needed to contain the .30-40 class of cartridges. It's too big an action to make into a properly trim and lightweight gun.

I made my own, a 458 Lott, may do another in 500NE.

Seems like there are a lot of elephant hunter on this forum. I wished Ruger would bring back the 257 Roberts. I love to have one. Anybody got one for sale.

I have my fathers #1 in .300 wtby mag. He took two elk byond 450 yds. Not much I would change about it.

I would place an equal amount of interest in a #1 with octagonal barrel chambered for 6mm rem.

i would to see something in 50 cal maybe 500 jeffery

6.5x55, 260, 338-06, 350 Rem Mag, 7mm-08, 6mm BR in Varmint model

Many voids I think...

Now THAT is one nice Ruger no 1 !!!

I'd like to have one along those lines....in 470 NE

What about a 38-55, 32-40, 25-35, 30-30, or a 303 brit.?

Bailey, we're building what we call Lynx rifles on #3 actions in 6mm Rem, with tapered octagon barrels, exhib walnut, etc etc. email me for details if you are really interested.

Don't believe a 500NE would be unreasonable with a very fine piece of wulnut, in the #1H configuration with express sights. I would like to see the rimmed nitroexpresses offered in the #1. R.

How about a walnut/blue 1A configured rimfire. I'd particularly like a .22 long rifle, but wouldn't turn up my nose at either of the .17s or the .22 Magnum.

Takedown 300 and 375 H&H. Does anyone do a #1 takedown??

270 WSM with a 26 inch PacNor super match stainless steel barrel. Shoots anything from the 110 Triple Shock to the 160 Nosler partition.

I guess there is not much interest in the older dash rounds or the 303. Seems they would make fun cast bullet shooters in the No.1 At least to me.

Being slightly bizarre, I'd like a .32/40 and a .38/55.....

I'm thinking about a .411/.348Winchester AI with a 22 or 24 inch octagonal barrel. The safety needs to be inlet to avoid any trouble with case extraction/ejection. Then a nice piece of wood would be nice. I've already got a .405Winchester, .411KDF, .411Hawk and am waiting for the .450/.400 and perhaps a .400H&H. Sorry, I've got a fixation on .41 caliber.

A Ruger nr 1 in .450 Nitro Express

the stock is darker than it look like, i used the flash on the camera to get the beautiful lines out in the color, i dint know tha tthe color on them was so fine as after i saw the picture myself

.338 Lapua with 30" tube.

A Ruger #1S with 26" barrel in .35 Whelen. As Ruger has dropped the "S" model, and it never came in the Whelen, I have a #1B that will be the donor.
Paul B.

I have always wanted a #1S in 300h&h w/ 26" med. bbl. Very classy African PG rifle.

Again I would like to see the #1H with very fine wulnut, 3 leaf express sights, quarter rib, and barrel band for sling. I know they come with some of these features but I think a run of British nitroexpresses in say 450 3 1/4NE, 500/465NE,470 NE, 500 NE, and 577 NE would start a nice collection. Guess a 600 is asking too much! R.

I,ll take a #1A in .257 roberts.
I would get rid of the barrel band sling swivel and just go with a standard one in the wood.
The band looks good but I would not want to shoot it with a tight sling !
...tj3006

Actually there are three which I crave and would probably be foolish enough to pay retail for!

First love would be a .358 Winchester in the 1A configuration.

Second a 1S in .264 Win Mag with a 26" barrel.

Third, the rimfire in a 7/8's scale version of the 1A.

All would have to be blue and walnut though.

Well sako you are gonna come close to your wish, as i have herd the .338 federal is comming in A #1A. hell of nice rifle as far as i am concerned...tj3006

I LIKES HER!.. most people sit their scopes much farther back, which dont looks right to me, but yours sits/looks just great.
Do you have to goose your head much forward?
maybe you can tell me barrel length and muzz. dia also, if its not to much trouble. WJ.

21.5"; I never miked the diameter but it's medium-heavy. I just mounted the scope where it felt right; it's very fast coming on target for me and pretty much fires of its' own volition.

There's more on it at

No doubt about it. It would have to be a No.1S in .300 H&H with a 26" barrel.

Takedown would be a huge plus.

How about a "Supergrade" version with upgraded wood and color case hardened receiver?

#1S with 26" bbl in stainless/walnut:

300 H&H
264 Win Mag
6.5x55
358 Norma Mag

1A with 22" bbl in stainless/walnut:

223
218 bee
17 HMR
358 Win.
Already have a Lipsey's special 1A in 35 Whelen in stainless/walnut.
Though they already exist, I also want a 1A in 7x57,204 Ruger, the new 9.3x74R and 450/400. Lou

thanks LRH270,

as far as naming her goes, this poster got it rite!
