Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Ruger No. 1-S Medium Sporter chambered in .475 Linebaugh is a striking example of classic rifle design meeting powerhouse performance. Built around Ruger's legendary falling-block, single-shot action, this rifle is both mechanically robust and aesthetically timeless. The 20-inch barrel strikes a fine balance between portability and ballistic performance, especially when paired with a cartridge as formidable as the .475 Linebaugh. Originally developed for revolvers, the .475 Linebaugh offers tremendous stopping power, and in a rifle platform like the Ruger No. 1-S, its potential is fully realized with superior velocity, control, and accuracy. This setup is ideal for close- to mid-range hunting applications where a single, decisive shot is all that’s needed—particularly for large or dangerous game.

Visually and ergonomically, the No. 1-S Medium Sporter maintains Ruger’s dedication to traditional styling. The rifle features a beautifully crafted checkered American walnut stock and forearm, with the classic Alexander Henry-style forend, offering both elegance and practical handling. The blued finish on the receiver and barrel adds to the rifle’s refined look while providing corrosion resistance. Ruger equips the rifle with a bead blade front sight on a ramp base and an adjustable folding rear sight, ideal for quick sight alignment in the field. Additionally, the quarter rib on the barrel includes integral scope mounting bases and ships with Ruger rings, giving shooters the option to mount optics while preserving the rifle’s clean lines. As a single-shot rifle, the No. 1-S demands deliberate shooting, a trait that experienced hunters appreciate for its emphasis on precision and discipline. With its short overall length relative to its barrel, the rifle handles well in dense brush or from blinds, and the strong lever-actuated falling-block action has a reputation for reliability under pressure. Chambered in such a potent round, this version of the Ruger No. 1-S is as much a specialized hunting tool as it is a collectible piece of fine American gunmaking.
