I am re-barreling a Ruger #1 and am looking for a contour. For me, the 1A and 1AH barrels are too "light" and the 1B to heavy at the muzzle for proper balance.

I am thinking a 1A contour to the forearm tip and then .600 to the muzzle, 23" in length. What do you think?

Who has re-barreled a Ruger #1 and what contour did you use/recommend for balance?

Thanks, AJD

There is no accounting for taste.

Experience is a great thing as long as one survives it.

Generally, there ain't a lot that separates the two however,
Barely making it is a whole lot more satisfying than barely not making it.
