Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Ruger No. 3 Carbine in .22 Hornet is a compact, precision-focused single-shot rifle that pairs the simplicity of a break-action design with rifle-grade accuracy. This example’s 22" blued barrel and iron-sight setup—with a blade front and folding rear—provides a tidy, robust sighting system, while the inclusion of scope bases and a quality optic option allows the shooter to extend its effective range. Chambered in the flat-shooting .22 Hornet, the No. 3 delivers impressive ballistic performance for its size, making each deliberately taken shot count.

Finished in traditional blue and fitted with a smooth walnut straight-grip stock and forearm (complete with barrel band), the rifle balances classic styling with purposeful ergonomics. The single-shot action encourages careful marksmanship and low maintenance, and the combination of long barrel, secure stock, and optics capability makes this No. 3 Carbine an excellent choice for precision varminting, solo stalking, or anyone who values accuracy in a compact, no-nonsense hunting rifle.
