I don't know how much you consider it an "oddity" today, but it was when it first came out. The Ruger Hawkeye, .256 Magnum. Single shot, rotating breech.
When they came out about '63 or '64, if I remember correctly, they couldn't give 'em away. Hard to find a beat up one for under $1200.00 any more. If Ruger kept it and did some other chamberings I think it would still be selling. Just a little bit a head of it's time. Coogs.
