Ruger #1 RSI -- caliber offerings (past & present)
I'm familar with Ruger's current caliber offerings in this gun, however I'd like to know what other calibers (if any) this mannlicher stocked version has been offered in over the years. For reference, Ruger currently offers the #1 RSI in .243, .270, .30-06, and 7x57.

Any and all help is appreciated.

I remember seeing one in 257 Roberts.

I still have one in 250-3000 that I bought new in 1988 and it was a regular item at the time. I almost had the barrel setback and rechambered in 250-3000 Ackley Improved but came to my senses and left it as is. I will have a 250 Sav. Imp some day but with another action. Great gun by the way.

I'm sorry I jumped in without looking very good or it just didn't sink in very deep due to a thick skull but mine was a Mdl. 77 RSI in 250-3000 and not a #1. Duuuhh

Looks like the #1 RSI would be about perfect in a 6.5 something. The 6.5x54, 6.5x55, or .260 in that order would be great don't you think? Plateau Hunter

YES. And there's no flies on the .250/3000 either. An exceptionally fine chambering. Ruger should bring it back.
