The Ruger American Rifle is a bolt-action, magazine-fed, repeating rifle known for its various features. It has a receiver that is drilled and tapped for scope mount bases, specifically Weaver #46, which can accommodate different scope rings. Some notable characteristics of this rifle include a user-adjustable trigger, a two-position tang safety, a fast lock-time fire control mechanism, a detachable rotary magazine, a patent-pending bedding system, and studs for attaching sling swivels.
The Ruger Marksman Adjustable trigger allows for a crisp release and offers the option to adjust the pull weight between 3 and 5 pounds, enabling shooters to achieve the perfect shot. The rifle features a one-piece, three-lug bolt with a 70° throw, providing ample scope clearance. The bolt incorporates a full-diameter bolt body and dual cocking cams, ensuring smooth and easy cycling when shouldered. The barrel of the rifle is cold hammer-forged, resulting in precise rifling that contributes to exceptional accuracy, durability, and easy cleaning.
One of the notable design elements is the patented Power Bedding system, which includes an integral bedding block. This system effectively locates the receiver and free-floats the barrel, ultimately enhancing accuracy. The rifle’s synthetic stock is ergonomic and lightweight, designed for quick and easy handling. It combines a classic appearance with modern forend contouring and grip serrations. Additionally, the soft rubber buttpad is specifically crafted to reduce recoil.
The Ruger American Rifle offers minute-of-angle accuracy, ensuring that every hunting experience has the potential for success. It provides a reliable and customizable platform for both left and right-handed shooters.
