That is one that I have been waiting on for a while. It seemed like it took forever for the 2015 models to go into production. Any ideas when we will start to see these getting made? A few really neat entries in the whole line up. Really surprised to see two 1-S offerings. I guess that took the place of the 1-H?

Whew, I dodged a bullet. Nothing I have to have there, although the 20" .44 will be cute...

I'll bet the .275 Rigby will be a cute little fella.

It's really hard to describe how well the 24" A weight barrels handle. Lipsey's had the 25-06 24" AH back in 2006. There were not really enough of them made for many hunters/shooters to hold/handle one. This AH did not have sights. This new 275 Rigby 1A has "Express sights", which I take to be like the sights on the Boddington African Series. At one time, Huntington Die Specialties had 275 Rigby headstamped brass. Agreed; this rifle should be as cute as my blue tick pup

I've yet to see the point of a Creedmoor, unless you want to use a short action, but to each his own I would have rather seen a 26 Nosler in the 28" barreled 1B. Now the .44 mag could be a real interesting deal, and a good companion to my .44 S&W's. Eventually I'll have a 7x57 of one sort or another, so one stamped .275 Rigby is fine with me.

I have always wanted a number one marked 275 Rigby. Might have to get this one.

I would like to see photos of the 1A 275 Rigby. I like the idea of the express sight. Wish they sold one separately.
Cheers,
Chris

That 35 whelen is awefully tempting!
275 rigby ammo and brass are also available from Hornady. I have been shooting some of it in my ruger no 1 7x57 and it seems to be good stuff

I can see the Creedmore, but 28" is just a bit too much of a good thing, 'cept maybe for bayonet fighting.

Hornady makes .275 Rigby headstamped brass. And as a promotional offering, if you buy 5 or more boxes of .275 Rigby brass Hornady will send you a genuine pith helmet with Hornady and Ruger logos on the front.
