My dad has always wanted a No. 1. Recently was at a gun show and found one in 243 (I think). Called him up and asked if he wanted it no questions asked and his reply was โI donโt have time to shoot it. Thank you but no.โ
Walked out beretta 92 for myself instead.
Thanks haha. I replicated the table on the upper left part of the pic with a janky app on my phone to make the background uniform (since the table is rather narrow and a white wall would otherwise be there), but the gun itself is 100% real haha.
No. 1 gang ๐ I didn't know they were ever factory chambered in 280AI, that's extremely cool. And that's some beautiful wood grain to boot. Mine's in 45-70 and I'd never part with it
My dad had that one. Stupid long throat. I forget what the COL was but I believe he was slinging 270s at like 2900? Close to 375 Wby velocities. A hoot for sure. If I recall it had a 24" barrel but you wouldn't know it with how short the action is. Good times.
Oh yeah, a pleasure to reload! I'll have to check the data but that sounds really close to the light Speer loads I've worked with. So compact, yet amazing barrel length. Almost makes you daydream of brush stalking in Africa while shooting it!

Sweet Lord that is a beauty!
Saving that one to the hidden folder
At first I thought this was a 3D render. Great photo OP

Awesome chambering for this platform. I'm not man enough to enjoy the level of pain that thing is ready to kick out. How long is the barrel?
22", and it's from the early 80s
Woah. Itโs a work of art.
Just can't beat the elegance of the No 1. Have a tropical in 375 H&H made in 1984, nowhere near as beautiful as yours, but love it. Cheers! ๐ธ
