The 1B Standard Rifle configuration pairs Ruger’s strong, hammerless falling-block action with a 26 inch blued sporter barrel. The barrel is crowned and fitted with a factory quarter rib, and the rifle was configured at the factory without open sights.
Chambered in .300 Weatherby Magnum, this single-shot has a one-round capacity and uses Ruger’s sliding tang safety. The quarter rib includes integral ring cuts, and Ruger rings are installed to secure the included optic.
The American walnut stock features a checkered pistol grip and beavertail forend, complemented by a black grip cap with Ruger medallion, a red Ruger recoil pad, and sling swivel studs. Length of pull measures 13.75 inches.
Its high-polish blued finish on the barrel and receiver presents a classic look. Ruger records indicate 1991 production in the United States, aligning this example with the period-correct features and configuration of the 1B Standard Rifle.
A Bushnell Banner 4-12x scope with a duplex reticle and 1-inch tube is installed on the Ruger quarter rib using the included 1-inch rings, offering a clear and practical setup for the cartridge and barrel length.
