Ruger #1 in big bore calibers

Please enlighten us on haw you managed to acquire those express sights?

It's a long story.

Looks just like the rear sight from the Boddington series rifles.

Update on the sights: they aren't cooperating. 8-9 inches low at the 25 yard line.

Does anyone have a Boddington .450 3¼? Would you be kind enough to measure the height base to the notch of the rear sight and the total height of the the front sight? Does your rifle shoot to its sights at 25 yards?

Update on the Lott: sights are on at 25 and 50. I now have a great 500 grain accuracy load, a 500 grain ball powder load for rapid manufacture and a milder 400 grain ball powder load for practice.
