·Any of your guns have a better story then you do...
This No.1 has been to the Dark Continent and back. And responsible for some mounts that still have not made it back to the USA after almost 2 years. Wish it had been me that made that trip of a lifetime, but it belonged to another gent...for the life of me ~ I cannot understand why he would ever part with it. That said, it is no secret that my favorite caliber is .243. And that I tend to collect the best guns made in that caliber. In my small pea-brain...it is the only caliber that I need.
I have just rescoped it this day. Put on a Nikon with the BDC long range hunting reticle. The gun is now retired, with only some varminting work to be done.
Drew chides me about my grail guns, but that is mostly in the revolvers
Truth be told I'm a rifleman and this is truly a grail gun to me. Due to the caliber, the designer, and the history. And simply, the eloquence of the Ruger No. 1...
Not my best picture, but.....
Funny, but I'm jealous of my own gun... :mrgreen:
