Overview
The Ruger Hawkeye Hunter in 7mm PRC is engineered for precision and reliability across diverse hunting environments. This bolt-action platform integrates durable materials with a proven controlled-feed design, optimizing long-range performance for demanding field applications.
Key Features
Mauser-Type Controlled Feed Action
This system ensures positive cartridge feeding from the magazine and robust extraction of spent casings, even in adverse conditions. The controlled-feed mechanism is recognized for its operational reliability and consistent performance.
Cold Hammer-Forged Stainless Steel Barrel
A 24-inch stainless steel barrel, cold hammer-forged for precise rifling and enhanced longevity. The material provides superior corrosion resistance, crucial for extended field use. The barrel length is optimized for the ballistic potential of the 7mm PRC cartridge, contributing to consistent velocity and accuracy.
Laminate Wood Stock
Features a weather-resistant laminate wood stock, offering superior stability and resistance to environmental shifts compared to traditional solid wood. The ergonomic design incorporates crisp checkering on the grip and forend to ensure secure handling and precise control.
Ruger LC6 Trigger System
The Ruger LC6 trigger system delivers a crisp, clean break, facilitating precision shot placement. Its design maintains operational integrity under varying conditions, providing a consistent pull every time.
Integral Scope Mounts
The receiver is precision machined with integral scope bases, eliminating the need for separate bases and providing a robust, repeatable mounting platform for optics integration. Ruger scope rings are included to facilitate immediate optic installation.
Hinged Floorplate Magazine
A traditional hinged floorplate allows for safe and convenient unloading without cycling rounds through the action. This design maintains a secure fit for cartridges and provides a reliable feeding mechanism.
