Does ruger still manufacture the #1 rifle?

I just bought a falling block rifle. It's not a Ruger and just happens to be a Winchester 1885 Low Wall, but I've wanted one since they announced they were producing them in 6.5x55 Swede.
I think it was announced about two years ago and it took me this long to finally get to hold one in my hands. Naturally it took me about 0.00005 seconds to decide to buy it. There is something
fundamentally right about a single shot falling block rifle that makes you want to go out and hunt something with it. I love it.
I don't know how well they are selling for Winchester, but the guy
beside me was buying one in .223 for his son; it would seem that the popularity of the falling block is still quite strong.
