I don't recall ever seeing one before today, in the used rifle rack at Scheel's in Omaha.

Yeah, they were a limited run from several years ago. They have a strong cult following now. You don't see a lot of used ones around.

I'd like to have a modern Low Wall in .30-30, but so far neither Ballard nor C Sharps will build it. I reckon I'll have to get one of the Japanese rifles and get someone to rebore it.

I do know where there is a custom High Wall in .30-30 Ackley Improved. I've been thinking about it for a while...
I also know about a certain four digit #1 in 6mm, that's real interesting.

Uberti makes a rolling block in .30-30.

Ever shot one...? Or just heard some gunshop BS artist spouting how "they don't shoot"! I've owned many MANY No.1's, and can think of exactly one that wasn't at least a 1.5" gun. No hokey black magic fixes, no extensive accurizing techniques, just proper setup and finding the right load. Jeez!

I had a Ruger 1A in 30/30 sent to me last summer because the owner said it didn't shoot well. It didn't. It took very little effort to get it shooting under 1.5 moa though and I'm sure it would have done better with any sort of load development. I thought it was a pretty neat rifle.
