[QUOTE="Muddyboots, post: 1900152, member: 63925"] Ok, buddy just grabbed one from an estate (1B 300WM) and over the years I have had a couple of them. Can drive you batty to get them to shoot well but once you have "fixed" the hanger bar and trigger they usually come around. So after hearing him talk about it I am starting to get the No.1 itch again. There is just something about the falling block action that has always drawn me to them. I had a couple of 7RM over the years and the last one I regret selling it since it actually shot well without any mods except for trigger work. So what do you think of a 6.5PRC 27-28" barrel which total length is no different than a 25-26" bolt? Do all the normal fixits for the No.1, bases like the 1V model instead of that dang rail. Or .270 1:8 in 26" for the higher BC bullets with appropriate throat. The nostalgia of the falling block is a moth to candle lure to me. Has anyone gotten one to shoot well at LR? [/QUOTE]
