[QUOTE="benchracer, post: 834966, member: 22069"] Regrettably, Ruger no longer chambers the #1A in 7x57. I believe the full-stocked RSI is still chambered for it, though. I am personally not a fan of the full-stocked version. YMMV. The #1A isn't perfect. Many people don't like the trigger. Mine is OK. Another common issue is that the forearm often contacts the barrel, making accuracy very poor. My #1 had that issue. I had a gunsmith freefloat the forearm and bed it to the hanger. Problem solved. Another issue is that the factory scope mounts are located pretty far forward, which can make scope selection and mounting tricky. If you go with too large/heavy of a scope, you will destroy the rifle's excellent handling qualities anyway. Careful scope selection pays big dividends on a rifle like the #1. [/QUOTE]
