i really like Ruger #1`s great rifle , the very 1st thing i do is clean the barrel well and use my bore scope ,then i see how well the rifle will shoot with my hand loads , if there is a problem with accuracy i glass bed part of the forearm and float the rest. i preferred 52 -55 gr. bullets and in a 22-250 i used H414 or WIN. 760 . i always volume load my powder with a Redding bench rest powder measure, use Redding dies ,Federal or Remington primers, brass is either Federal or Remington. have a great time shooting your Ruger #1 one of America`s finest made firearms,Pete53
