Description:
A very nice Ruger Number 1 heavy barrel varmint rifle. Great condition inside and out. Bore is in 100% condition. The last two photos show the minor marks on this rifle. A spot in the blue on the left side of the barrel at the muzzle and a fading of the stock finish on the high points left side only near the action. I am sure that can be fixed with dark funiture polish.  Rifle is complete with rings and will ship in the lower 48 states for $35.00. Getting hard to find varmint .223 Remington caliber in these Ruger single shot rifles. 

Modeled after the famous Farquharson falling-block rifle, the Ruger No. 1 was the brainchild of Bill Ruger, who fancied himself an aficionado of the single-shot rifle. Originally, the gun was to be named the Victorian, but with Bill being Bill and the gun being his No. 1 favorite, the Ruger No. 1 designation stuck.
Being a varmint model, the barrel is 26 inches in length and tapers to a pleasing 0.74 inch at the muzzle. At eight pounds, it’s a little bit heavier than my Standard models but could still be considered a walking varminter.
Since this gun has a heavy barrel, there is no quarter rib and instead sports a pair of target blocks on the barrel that mate perfectly to the Ruger rings included with the gun. I like to attach a pair of Ruger rear offset rings to all my Ruger No.1 rifles to provide more wiggle room for eye relief.
