[QUOTE="Gene, post: 625677, member: 7402"] I did look at that photo. Bedding the tip of the fore end is interesting. I tried it long ago, and mine shot worse. From all I have read, most shoot better floating. That's when I had a gunsmith named Korzinic in PA accurize mine. He did a good job; removed some wood around the back of fore end, then fiberglassed the first 1" or so. Then, he put a fiber cushion where the foreend hanger draws it up toward the barrel. I checked mine this morning and can easily slide a $1 bill from the tip back to the glass bedding. I am making no further changes. Bottom line; yes the Ruger #1 is worth the money, but be prepared to spend a little more on a retrofit if you want it to shoot well. But remember, there are no guarantees. [/QUOTE]
