I had a Ruger No 1 B in 7 RM for about ten years. Worked great hunting over bean fields and logging operations in NC from permanant stands. I eventally realized it didn't do anything that a 30-06 wouldn't do and sold it for a much trimmer and lighter No 1 A. I'm 67 now and mostly shoot levers also, but still have the No 1 A.
jonesmd4, yep, enjoy the levers. A lot. But, I did keep my Ruger#1B in 30-06. Just can' t seem to part with that one. I mean, it is sort of a lever! Do like the #1's.
