[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 87396, member: 10"] Please notice that I am not saying a Ruger #1 can not be exceptionally accurate. This is really not my reason for not recommending then for a long range rifle platform. The main reason is the way the POI can shift depending on how the rifle is supported. Groups will tend to have different POIs with a hand held rest, a bipod or a bag rest. TO what degree will depend on the rifle itself. Groups are generally quite good in a properly build #1 but I have noticed this POI shift with all #1s to some degree. For conventional big game hunting out to say 500 yards, they are pretty solid performers and perhaps the classiest rifles available in my opinion. For consistant shot placement at long range, there are just better options to start a rifle project with, thats all I am saying. Kirby Allen(50) [/QUOTE]
