Any input on the feel, balance of the Ruger Number Ones being offered in 257 Wby?

I see that they've got a 28" barrel, which ought to help it make even more velocity. Like the 257 Wby really needed more velocity.. I'm familiar with the cartridge, but curious about the rifle itself - is it a well balanced hunting rifle? Something that could be carried easily while hunting pronghorn & mule deer? Been a while since I had a 1B, and have never seen one with a 28" barrel.

Thanks, Guy
