Description:
In 2008, Ruger collaborated with noted outdoor writer Craig Boddington and Lipsey's on a special series of Number 1 rifles. The result was a limited edition five gun set that would share the same features and be chambered in different calibers optimized for Craig's favorite African species to hunt. All of the rifles in the set feature a matte blue finish, circassion walnut stock, Warne quick detach rings, and special express sights made specifically for each caliber by Ruger. There were 250 of each model made with each caliber having the same serial # with a different pre-fix. The 375 Ruger Lion was the first rifle produced in the series and was built on the lighter Number 1S model for a quick handling, lighterweight, heavy caliber rifle. Falling Block Single Shot, 22" Barrel Circassion Walnut Stock, Matte Blue Finish, 1-in-12" Twist, Express Sights, Quarter Rib, 7.25 lbs., Alexander Henry Forend, Warne Quick Detach Rings The 450/400 Nitro Express Buffalo was the second rifle produced in the series. These have the lighter contour Number 1H Tropical barrel. Falling Block Single Shot, 24" Barrel Circassion Walnut Stock, Matte Blue Finish, 1-in-15" Twist, Express Sights Quarter Rib 9 lbs., Alexander Henry Forend, Warne Quick Detach Rings The 300 H&H Magnum Kudu was the third rifle produced in the series.
