    Ruger No. 1 in 30-30... again?

    Am I seeing this correctly..... that Ruger is making a Lipsey's exclusive run of No. 1's in SS 30-30 again?
    If so....... I have a kidney for sale!!!!!

    I hope it's so!!!!! I have always wanted one of those in 30-30!


    And the reason I ask, is if one goes to the Ruger.com web page and selects "rifles" from the top and scrolls down to the No. 1's and selects that, it opens a page which shows Model Number: 21317 as "NEW" and a dealer exclusive. Perhaps the web page is old..... but I hope not?

    I think an American Rifle in .30 WCF would be really sweet. The rotary mag should feed it slick as taco grease.
    Currently casting and loading: .32 Auto, .380 Auto, .38 Special, 9X19, .357 Magnum, .257 Roberts, 6.5 Creedmoor, .30 WCF, .308 WCF, .45-70.

    Ah, thanks for the link. Guess its just me but a stainless No 1 just looks like they forgot to blue it. No offence intended to those who like them, I'm happy they still run ANY No 1s ! Now that Talo 35 whelen could follow me home anytime!

    I like what you're thinking but is there a rotary mag option on the Ruger American?

    As far as I know, all the American Rifles use rotary mags.

    At least it doesn't have a muzzle brake! I love the 30-30 but that one would be rechambered to 30-40 Krag for my use.

    I have seen exactly 2 #3's in .30-40 for sale and bought them both. Boolit shooting machines.

    I think the time is right for Ruger to come out with an interchangeable caliber single shot line.

    My local dealer says that Lipsey's doesn't have it in stock yet. He thinks it'll be after the upcoming SHOT show.

    I have a No 3 in 30-40. Tremendous. Shoots everything from 311284 boolits at sedate speeds, to j-words at 308 velocities with excellent accuracy.

    Sure like that idea of an American in 30-30!

    303 with a .308 bore would be a nice shooting gun.

    Id Est, the 30-40...When you look at the design of the 30-40 it's the Spinal Tap version of the 303 British ("but mine goes to 11").
