I have a Ruger No. 1B in the 6mm Remington, it is a tack driver and extremely effective on deer. I love it! I always wanted a Ruger No1, and the 6mm is what I killed my first deer with, years ago. One of my dads friends told me he had a No.1 chambered in the 6mm, he only shot a half a box of shells out of it when he first bought it. He was the original owner, said it sat in his safe for years. He told me that he would sell it to me for $350, I about crapped my pants. Needless to say, it is now mine. Probably the best buy I have ever made. I had a guy recently try to trade me a Remington 700 VSSF 22-250 for it, I refused, he offered me $1000. I told him this gun isn't going anywhere, its one of my favorites. With the 26" barrel and handloads, the 6mm really shines." />
