The Ruger American rifle series has been one of the best budget bolt-action rifle offerings in the current market. The rifle is available virtually everywhere in the United States and comes at an affordable price for its performance. However certain states still try to put bans on particular firearms when it comes to hunting and this is where the new Ruger One-Shot Sled comes in. For states that have particular seasons where only “single-shot” centerfire rifles are allowed, the Ruger One-Shot Sled easily and quickly converts your factory Ruger American magwell into a sled that easily allows you to load a single round at a time into your rifle.

Ruger Releases the One-Shot Sled for Short-Action Ruger American Rifles
The Ruger® One-Shot Sled for short-action Ruger American® rifles is used in place of the Ruger American magazine and allows for quick and easy loading of a single cartridge. The sled provides smooth, single-round feeding, useful to slow down a new shooter or simplify loading during range sessions. The Ruger One-Shot is also ideal for hunting – particularly in states with single-shot hunting regulations such as Illinois.
The One-Shot Sled is a direct magazine replacement for Ruger American rifles in short-action calibers, including many calibers used for hunting (350 Legend, 450 Bushmaster, 300 Blackout, .308 Winchester, 6.5 Creedmoor, etc.). The sled ships with a magazine well to adapt rifles configured from the factory to accept AR-, AI-, or Mini Thirty®-pattern magazines. When inserted in the rifle, the One-Shot sled fits flush with the stock and does not interfere when carrying a slung rifle or shooting from a bag or backpack. This Genuine Ruger Factory Accessory is made in the USA.
The Ruger One-Shot Sled doesn’t (or shouldn’t) require installation by a gunsmith as it uses the existing mounting hardware and holes already in place on the Ruger American series of rifles. Each One-Shot Sled is sold on the ShopRuger.com website for $24.95. For more information, you can visit www.shopruger.com.
