Hey Guys and Gals, I'm getting close to pulling the trigger on a Ruger No. 1 but would really appreciate some advice from all of you way more savvy on caliber choice than than me. I'm really tossing between .338 Fed. and .35 Whelen. The gun appointments are different for each but the right caliber is more important than the gingerbread and the price is mostly a wash. I reload and as best as I can tell it looks like the .338 components may be a bit more plentiful. This one would be considered more of a tool than a toy. Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated.
As far as scoping, would a 3-9 X 40 be an appropriate size for either gun's capabilities?
Thanks.
Tim
