[QUOTE="karlkostman, post: 1681301, member: 17605"] Hey guys I am looking for thought and your experiences concerning a Ruger Number 1 in .257 weatherby Mag. I am picking up a new one tomorrow and since I have not owned a number 1 in 30 years I am wondering what to expect as far as trigger, accuracy, are there things that I should be planning to do to the gun right out of the box? The last one I owned was in 76 and it was chambered in .220 Swift I had to work on the forearm a little but then the rifle shot pretty good always 1 MOA or better with factory ammo. When I bought the rifle it had a set trigger and that was a beautiful thing to shoot. How have these rifles changed over the last 30 years? What can I expect from the rifle I know the 257 Weatherby is a fantastic round since I have been shooting a Mark V in that caliber for the last 25 years for everything from white tail to Elk and everything in between. Thoughts on the new Number 1 is what I am interested in, and I will be mounting one of the new Long range Leupold scopes on the rifle. Thanks much I look forward to hearing your thoughts!
