Ruger no 3

What are the differences between the Ruger 3, and the no. 1. I love the falling block classic look, but I have never been able to get a No. 1 to shoot MOA, or better. Do I have any better chances to with a no. 3? Is the no 3 forearm supported by a hanger as in the no 1? I've used the hicks device with little to no success. I'm well experienced in bedding bolt actions, usually with improved results. Any other advise or thoughts on a No. 3 as a project. THX HAWKSHAW

Knew a guy who had one in 45-70. Instead of using light handloads, he shot it with commercial ammo. It bout beat him black and blue, and gave him a permanent flinch.
Another friend has a No 1V that does much better.
Good luck.
even with only mildly heavy loads.
