I have always liked #1s, and this would be a one stop shop to learn.
The Savage Collectors forum has a bunch of advanced collectors there and I am sure the Ruger forum would eventually have the same.
I vote yes.

Think the #1 has been enough of a topic on the Single Shots sub forum that its not cause for one Ruger specific.

My Ruger #1 luck is 6 for 6 good.
'67, '74, '78, '85, '00 and '17 yrs mine were made.
Only the '74 needed a new bbl (bad from start, Ruger redid it).

It’d be better than the Savage Collector’s ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/nLPVypTp/Waterboy.gif)

Tide Change: Thank you for putting in a good word to them - I am off chasin guns today and will get off a posting to the moderators this afternoon.
RAS: Thanks for your positive input/vote.
I say lets get it done.
Hookeye: You are sayin all but one of your Ruger #1's shot well?
Keep after'em - theres more out there.
I think my best shooting (out of the eight I now own) is a Ruger #1-V (SS) in caliber 204 Ruger.
Worst shooting Ruger #1 that I've had (and still own) was a 2 1/2" group shooting Ruger #1-B in 22 Hornet - took me years of off and on load development and tinkering to get it to shoot 1.000" groups (5 shots at 100 yards - with Leupold 6x18 scope)!
Still love that little Rifle with its beautiful wood.

Only one shot poorly, from the get go.
Original purchaser sent it back and Ruger rebarreled it.
Fine after.

Well there is a sub-forum for 1895 405 Winchesters which in my view is very specific while Ruger encompasses No. 1s, 77s, All Americans, Blackhawks, Redhawks and the plethora of other handguns, shotguns and rifles.

Kaboku68 & All: I have sent a request to this sites owners, moderators and webmasters regarding including one more forum - that being a "Ruger Collectors" forum.
It can be viewed at the moderators contact site.

You'll have to forgive me, I shot three Ruger 22 pistols today. Just a suggestion but if you’re ammo is Remington check bullet diameter. Had a stupid amount of jams with a Mark something heavy barrel until a flash of sanity occurred. Some of the bullets measured as much as 0.228 Many were over 0.226 and could barely be force fed into a Ruger Single Six cylinder.

All: Well no movement and no replies from those requested - so maybe those of us that are interested in establishing a new "Ruger Collectors Forum" should try contacting the site moderator?
I think it would be popular.
Long live Sturm Ruger.
