Our Assessment: This is a Ruger No. 1 single-shot rifle chambered in .25-06 Remington with a 26-inch barrel, factory-fitted with a radial muzzle brake. Built around Ruger’s signature falling block action, the No. 1 is prized for its compact strength and elegant profile. This example features a blued barrel and receiver paired with a finely grained stock, complete with deep checkering. The radial muzzle brake not only reduces recoil and muzzle rise, but adds a custom look to this long-range varmint and deer rifle. The falling block lever operates with smooth precision, and the single-stage trigger offers a clean, crisp break. With its flat-shooting cartridge and Ruger’s legendary craftsmanship, this No. 1 is equally suited for hunting or collecting.
