They were great little rifles. I had one in .223. Fit and finish was exceptional.

I asked the question as to why they quit making them many years ago to a Ruger rep. He said, poor demand. If people wanted a singleshot, they would buy the #1 instead.

I thought I would add one question. When did they stop making the #3? Must have been over 30 years ago.
