I hear Ruger No 1s as beautiful as they are kick like mules.

That one will, at least. Pretty cool find though.

I hear Ruger No 1s as beautiful as they are kick like mules.

I am not sure I would volunteer to shoot it, my heavy barrel No. 1 weighs 8.2lbs. That .500 would probably help you find religion, or at least a good Orthopedist.

That rifle sold for $3000.

Sold to a masochist I suspect.

Why would someone do that to themselves?!?! I love my Ruger No. 1 in 416 Rigby but boy after a few shots at the range I am done.

I zeroed one years ago for a guy. I stacked up sandbags like a bunker so I could shoot it standing and it still gave me a beating.
