Regardless as to price I would look at the three part-groups of a rifle. Review each group for the features that you want then pick the rifle that gives the groups nearest to your desires. Back in the day it was simple for me- I'd find a suitable action, put a Canjar trigger on it, have CP...

Not to get in the middle, but Ruger No 1s have a rib for mounting scopes that need Ruger style rings that do not attach to bases or have a receiver/barrel that is drilled/tapped.

I was unaware someone refurbishes Weavers. I have a K, K (a), K 60 B and K 60 C. They just sit on a shelf, having been replaced by newer models- but this may open a door for their use. Thanks for the info and GLWS.

Please provide data to verify that claim.

Or maybe wait for a 105mm/375- but of course a gun bearer is required.

I have both the Original and the Classic Forster trimmers. I noticed the same issue with larger cases in the Original. I talked with a lady at Forster and she told me that the older ones had a smaller hole and that if I sent it back to them they would machine out the hole to new diameter, free...

The two 404s that I had were both built on Winchester M 70 actions, one from 1952, the other 1953. I'm not sure what cartridge they left the factory as. One was by P.O. Ackley with P.O. Ackley barrel; the other Tipton burns of Houston, TX with Lothar-Walter barrel. Both functioned flawlessly

Possible solution: piece the pieces of the stock back together then set it in a stock duplicator machine and have a new stock cut from wood that would match the old stock.

I'd have gotten them in a flash if my feet were 3 sizes larger.

Purchased from @Arctic97 - received the 48 lb package- was the BEST packing job I have EVER seen. Box reinforced with hardboard top & bottom and packing tape ALL around. Stuff received timely, as advertised and well protected. Would purchase from @Arctic97 again.

It isn't quite that simple since it involves developing a load that has optimum regulation for a double rifle, but as noted Performance presently has it in stock (rationed) so it should be available before long at the other reputable sources.

I was looking for a 470 Capstick a few months ago but came across a 475 Turnbull so got it instead, so I don't have any load data to help- sorry.
