Had a red pad 1B in .243 win that was great w handloads.
Used when I got it, had it for a decade.........throat eroded.
Didn't have the $ to rebarrel back then
Pops has a 1B in .22-250 that does OK, it's an even older version.
Orig owner got it, wouldn't shoot...........sent it back and Ruger rebarreled it.
Was OK after that.
Dinged up, pops still has it.
If I get it I'll have it eblued and a new bbl put on.............243 win.
Or maybe have it converted to look like a 1S in .35 rem.
