Ruger#1 vs New Win High Wall
I've always wanted a modern single shot and have never had the money when I've come across one I've liked. I now see both Ruger and Win make their respective models in 300 H&H. To me this would be a great "one gun" rifle if I were ever forced into such an ungodly situation.
My purpose for this rifle would be twofold...hunting and reloading/ load development. As for hunting this would be a lower 48 proposition for 98% of what I hope to do. What I really enjoy though is reloading and playing with a rifle to see what its capable of. But I am not looking for a discussion of the caliber as thats a whole new can of worms.
So I've heard all about the Ruger forend and the steps many take to improve that fit for accuracy. Never heard much good or bad about the Winny. Looking for people with experience with one or both of these for their likes and dislikes about them. I'd be putting a scope on rifle if I did buy one...any problems there/ How are the triggers? fit and finish? anything else I should be aware of?
I would hope 1" @ 100yds accuracy with tailored loads would not be too much to ask for is it? Thats better than needed for hunting but I would hope that would be achieveable. Any thoughts (besides caliber choice) will be appreciated.
What say ye.......:coffee:
