Product Summary

When you think of single-shot rifles, think of the best. Think Ruger No.1, the standard for American-Made single-shot rifles. With a No.1 rifle for virtually every sporting activity, you can find the configuration that is best for you. The marksman who owns a No.1 rifle values high-quality American craftsmanship, has pride of ownership, and demands reliable, accurate performance. This Tropical model is an African dangerous game gun suited for large calibers. It is chambered in 450/400 3" Nitro Express, has a 24” blued barrel and American Walnut stock with Alexander Henry-styled forend, and features blade front and adjustable rear sights.

Caliber Dictionary

The Below Information Has Been Provided From Our Gun Caliber Dictionary And Is Meant For Informational Purposes Only. It Is Not Intended to Describe The Unique Specifications For This Ammunition.
There are two versions of the 450/400 Nitro Express: 450-400 3 1/4", based on a blackpowder case; and 450-400-3" (400 Jeffery), designed for smokeless powder and introduced by W.J. Jeffery in 1902. Although performance is very similar they are not interchangeable, as the 450-400-3" has a thicker rim. The 450-400 3 1/4" is slightly more powerful, but the 450-400-3" is more common today and offers better load density with modern propellents. Collectively they were extremely popular a century ago, probably the most popular cartridge among tiger hunters and considered adequate for the world's largest game. On Craig Boddington's recommendation Hornady added the 450-400-3" to their dangerous game line; it has been popular in the Ruger Number One single shot and is currently chambered by most modern double rifle makers. With a 400-grain bullet at 2100 fps it develops much less recoil than big-bore cartridges, yet is perfect for buffalo and adequate for elephant. Kynoch loads both versions. — Craig Boddington
