Don't be surprised at the lop. River #1s are all that way and it works great.

A very good question! Someone, give this Ruger a home where it can be admired and shot!

Yes been like 3-4 people backed out on it ,,,,,I've been wanting to get to the range and try some test loads in my other #1 220 swift in which has been loaded up for a few years. BUT IM NOT GOING TO WEAR A MASK ON THE RANGE !!!!!!! Those loads are just for some odd ball bullet's I have laying around like Hornady 52,53 grainers...

I remember playing with mine. Had a high mounted scope on it. Was working up loads with the 60 gr pills. All I member is that I could not find elevations! Lol. Back then, I didn't record my findings like I now do. I do rememberber it was a fine rifle and I should have kept it.
I now have four # 1s. Oops, five. All are beautifully stocked. One is in a wildcat, 17/ 222mag. Shoots 1/2 inch at 200 yds!
Really, this #1 is a buy! I don't know the seller, have no game in it, but someone should buy it! He has a good price on a fine, fine rifle.

I'm down to only 3 #1's, my other's are in 77 models. I bought copies because I love them and never got to shoot them because of work, family, and since 2012 medical / work. I opt to sell some i wont use . Im at a point of just taking the add down but if later I list it it won't be for $1200. I have 2 large Safe's full of gun's and since I retired in Jan early I've only been to the range once and put about 20-30 rounds out of my other #1 220 and about 10 -15 out of my mk2 223.

Traded my cmp M1 Garrand for a 77 swift. Long, heavy barrel. Great shooter.
