One interesting observation about the write-up. Story is that one hundred barrels were tested, best barrel was set aside. Ten lots of barrels were tested, the ten best barrels were tested, best became part of a “One of One Thousand”. The other nine barrels were used to build “One of One Hundred” rifles. Why do we not have nine “One of One Hundred” rifles for every ” One of One Thousand”?

This is what I’ve always wondered too! In for a penny, in for a pound I guess if you were buying an upgraded rifle back in the day.
