A beautiful No. 1A light sporter chambered in 280 Remington. Bluing and wood are in great shape. I honestly believe this one hasn’t been fired much. I ended up with two of these at the same time and have decided to cut this one loose. 1225 bare rifle shipped to your ffl.[Linked Image][Linked Image]

This is tempting. I just sold my 1A 7x57 and should replace it.


I am always looking for factory wood stocks!

I’m trying not to buy anything for a while. Dang it! Someone buy this rifle before temptation overcomes


I prefer classic.

It really hurts, because in my opinion the 280 is the finest cartridge for North America. Further the no. 1 is such a fine rifle and yours appears exceptional.

You’re really talking yourself into it😁. 280 will do everything you need here in North America and most of what you need in Africa excluding the big 5 with the right bullet

Well you need a couple to hunt with, 4 or 5 to look at, and 2 or 3 to just know you got some lol

Great looking 1A. My favorite No. 1 configuration!
