18 Best Single Shot Rifles

Single-shot rifles are probably the last type of guns that the commies are going to try and ban. Even though they lack the advantages of semi-automatic and even repeating arms, they do offer many benefits. These rifles that only hold one round are typically the most inherently accurate and are often the most durable. With an incredibly small number of moving parts, their reliability is incredibly high as well, and they offer more!

With one round, there is a bigger emphasis on shooter accuracy.
You don't spend as much money on ammo when you take it out to the range.
A game warden can never fine you for having too many rounds loaded when you're out hunting if your rifle only holds one round.
They are great learning tools for new shooters!

Using the arrows, cast your votes and let us know which ones you think are the best! If you would add one of these to your collection, hit that up arrow! If you think the gun doesn't belong on this list, hit that down arrow!
