Here’s a Ruger No. 1 Light Sporter in .22 Hornet. This rifle is built on Ruger’s No. 1 single-shot action, and it is known for its simplicity and accuracy. For those of us hunting varmints like prairie dogs out east or needing a solid, accurate rifle for smaller deer in the foothills, the .22 Hornet is a flat-shooting cartridge that performs well.

The “Light Sporter” designation means a slightly lighter barrel profile than some of the heavier No. 1 models. The color case hardened receiver gives it a classic look, and the walnut stock provides a solid feel. Single-shots require care and attention to each shot, and many Montana hunters appreciate that focused approach. This isn’t a rifle for fast follow-up shots; it’s for making each one count. Good for short to medium range hunting.
