I've pushed Lipseys hard for a #1 in 454 Casull. How cool would that be?
Doubt it becomes a reality...

Well they did one in 475L. I wish they would do one in 500 maximum. Bet that the Bushwhacker would be a beast in a carbine or rsi version.

I've got the 475 Linebaugh in the rarer 22" Version. It's a beast.
But, most pistol cartridge style rifles can't handle the 454 Casull. The #1 would only require a 454 Casull Barrel with no other alterations.
Ditto on the Encore Rifle. That's probably the route I'll take.
Neither would be picky about bullet selection either.

Well: Took a SBH down to a smith in Trinidad for a little work, Got a look at my #1 work in progress, another 218 Mashburn Bee with some tweaks. I do like those #1. Have a nice day Don K

I really like my 22” No.1 in 475 Linebaugh. It’s fun and easy to shoot.

I want one of the 475s. Yesterday I saw Lipsey's advertising a 6.5 PRC in all stainless although it is not on their website.

The classic calibers have always been neat but I think walnut and stainless are a great choice for chambering in the hot new cartridge of the day.
They should lean into the strengths of a single shot and throat and twist them to accommodate the highest BC bullets loaded long.
PRC are good rounds. I’d prefer the 7 for better barrel life.

The 275 Rigby is a favorite of one of the higher ups at Lipseys. It's also been a top seller.
I question the 6.5 PRC not having a longer barrel. Great move putting a 28" on the 257 Weatherby. The PRC deserves the same.

Two out of the three cases are next to impossible to find……

Two out of the three cases are next to impossible to find…… We've seen shortages in all ammo and components. But, all but the 6.5 PRC are established cartridges. I'm curious which two you're referring to.
