[QUOTE="Alibiiv, post: 1594349, member: 69192"] You are right they Ruger #1 is a very unique and pretty rifle. If you find one that shoots, keep it because you have a very reliable rifle. And if you don't have one that shoots, then you are up for a lot of extra work "in hopes" that you can make it shoot. Glass bedding the fore end where it meets the action is one option. I bought a "HICKS" accurizer for one of the Ruger #1's that I had in 7mm RemMag. It goes between the fore end and the barrel and acts similar to Browning's boss system by changing the harmonics of the barrel by tightening a set screw. As the setscrew is tightened the actual size of the group changes and you can really dial the rifle n with it. But....if you own a Ruger #1 you probably already know about the HICKS. The HICKS will not fix your 10 inches low problem, however if you have other Ruger #1s and want to try one I'll give you a deal with a new one still in the package. PM me with your information.
