[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1213172, member: 10291"] The viability of the Ruger #1 as a long range rifle really depends on what you define as long range. Out to 500-600 yards on medium to large game, it can work. For shooting game out to 1000 yards, I think the design is lacking. While I have seen them shoot better under controlled conditions and special attention to the bedding, my experience is that it's at best, a 1 MOA rifle. For LR hunting beyond 600 yards in conditions where temperatures vary, there is the potential for rough handling, and the strick requirement for cold bore, first shot precision, it would not be my choice. IMO. [/QUOTE]
