[QUOTE="DaveB, post: 5357439, member: 5958"] A great caliber and sweet looking rile. I want to repeat an interesting day at the range. My twin boys and I were at MSSA and a much older fellow arrived with one rifle and a tackle box. He got his target ready and one of my boys jumped up and volunteered to take the target downrange. The old guy said sure and off my son went lickety split down the sidewalk and then aligned the target with the shooter's bench and then sprinted back to the line. Range went hot and the old guy uncased his rifle-it was a Ruger #1 and when Son asked what caliber the reply was Twenfiveoughtsix just like that all one word. Old guy laid the rifle across the tackle box, got a picture, squeezed one off. I pivoted our spotting scope and he was 2 inches high at 100. Old guy looked over and said I see two inches high dead center-you see that?" I replied yep. I swear he put everything away, son called range cold and went for the target. Old guy said thanks and away he went. Wanted a twenfiveoughtsix ever since. [/QUOTE]
