This bolt-action system integrates robust construction with critical performance features, designed to meet the demands of experienced firearm enthusiasts.
Key Features
Precision Engineering
- The cold hammer-forged, medium-contour barrel delivers consistent projectile velocity and mitigates heat distortion during extended firing sequences.
- A factory-installed one-piece aluminum Picatinny rail ensures secure optics mounting and consistent zero retention.
- The rifle’s Power Bedding® integral bedding block system free-floats the barrel, directly contributing to sub-MOA precision potential.
- A three-lug bolt with a 70-degree throw provides ample scope clearance and smooth, reliable cycling. The full-diameter bolt body minimizes binding.
Optimized Ergonomics
- Equipped with the Ruger Marksman Adjustable™ trigger, users can fine-tune pull weight from 3 to 5 pounds, facilitating consistent shot placement and control.
- The lightweight synthetic stock is designed for durability and reduces overall carry weight, an essential factor for field utility. The ergonomic design promotes stable shooting positions.
Integrated Performance
- Utilizing a 10-round detachable box magazine (Magpul AICS-style compatible), this platform ensures ample capacity for rapid follow-up shots without frequent reloads.
- The threaded barrel (1/2″-28) allows for direct integration of muzzle devices, including suppressors or compensators, to further optimize recoil management and sound mitigation.
