I took the No. 1 to the range today. Wow, what a show stopper. I thought my Weatherby Mark V drew a crowd, but it was nothing like the No. 1. The range was crowded today and everyone that was there stopped by my bench to look at, comment on, admire, fondle, etc., the No. 1. I didn't realize what a "cult gun" the No. 1 is.

It didn't do too bad for open sights. Only shot it at 50 yards to get used to it. Best three shot group was about 3". [Should have said 2". See post below.] First two shots were touching and then I had a flier. I think it will improve as I get used to the gun.

Trigger on the No. 1 is fabulous. And it's a very light gun, so I was expecting some punishment from the 30-06, but it wasn't bad at all.

I just got the target out and measured. I should have said the best three shot group was about 2". The worst group was about 3".

Plenty accurate for deer hunting in the woods around here.
