I have heard a lot about inaccurate Ruger No. 1's, but have never personally seen one that would not shoot 1 MOA, and often a lot less, with the right ammo. I have, however, never fired more than 20 rounds of factory ammo in a No.1, but anyone who wants a varmint rig has to be a handloader. I don't care much about Ruger's acceptance standards, only my own!!
This is a
typical three-shot, 200 yard group shot with my No. 1B 7mm Rem. Mag., with 66.5 grains of N205 and the Rem. 175-grain PSPBT on a 1" grid target. I now use MRP in place of N205.
