FYI, Lipsey's got in some more 243 V's and (42) 35 Whelens today, as well as a bunch of 454 Casull Super Blackhawks. I sure wanted a 358 #1A, oh well. Bob! :(

I ordered a #1s in 44 yesterday can't wait.

I did the same. Seems like some of these new calibers are out already. Maybe the reason they waited so long to announce them this year is so they would have some ready to ship.

Was it formally announced by Lipsey's that these were the 2016 calibers?

The only reason I ask is a month or two ago they had 4-5 other configurations available, one of which was a 1-h in 458 Lott that tempted me.

I'm wondering if they are going to do several small batches of 1's???

Yes, these are the 2016 #1's. Just like last year they'll be the ones scheduled to be available by Lipsey's. Others may trickle out as clean-up pieces but I certainly wouldn't couldn't on any others other than what has been announced.

Anyone know the status of the 257 Wby? Lipsey's website still shows it. Last I'd read, there were some dregs from 2015, none of them with particularly nice wood.

If doing a 44 might we hold hope for a 45 / 454 chambering, pretty please

I'm no No.1 expert,
However I think the 460 S&W was produced at one time, covering the 45/454C.
They might do another run?

I just checked Lipsey's dealer site, still not showing the 308rsi. On the other hand, they have 243 V's and 35 S's ready to ship. Bob! :D

Ruger now showing all 2016 models, suppose Lipseys won't list until they get shipments?

A great selection of calibers for 2016.
I am a #1 enthusiast and have owned about ten different #1's over my lifetime.
I currently have the .204 Ruger, the .30/06 Lipseys 2015 (nice rifle) shoots great, the .405 win (my favorite #1 of all time), and the .45/70 stainless.

I would rather have seen the 6.5 Creedmoor in the #1 V.
I would also like the #1 RSI stainless in .308 win.
I have a Hawkeye International stainless in .308 win, and it is a fine hunting rifle.

I would also love to have the .35 Whelen for shooting cast bullets, but can't afford to buy one right now.

I see where Lipsey's got in a large order of Rugers today, including 50 #1B's in 6.5 CM and a few more 243V's and 35 Whelen S's. Lots of 6.5 Predators and other Americans as well. Bob!! :D

My rep did not call me, but there were seven left when I got to the computer. Six left now.
