Let me begin by saying I am not in any way bashing the caliber. Though it's no 45/70 Govt, I think it would be an awesome caliber to own and play around with if I didn't already have too many others to collect components and dies for :lol: .
Now, what I am really wondering is why is Ruger all of a sudden throwing all these 450's on the Market? First the American Rifle Ranch, then the Gunsite, now a No. 1?? I would assume that Bushmaster (Or whoever owns them now) still owns the rights to this caliber, which seems a little odd that Ruger would be pushing a competitor's caliber at what is really a niche market. Maybe I'm all wrong, but it seems a little odd to me. Kind of surprised they didn't throw their hat into the ring with a "450 Ruger" if they were planning this many offerings.
