Ruger American Rifle Generation II Predator

The Ruger American Rifle Generation II Predator is a high-performance bolt-action rifle chambered in .243 Winchester, designed for precision hunting and long-range shooting. Featuring a 22-inch medium contour barrel with deep spiral fluting and a Burnt Bronze Cerakote finish, this rifle offers exceptional accuracy and balance while weighing just 6.7 pounds. The green splatter finished Gen II American stock provides a non-abrasive grip, complemented by a soft rubber recoil pad for maximum recoil reduction, making it ideal for extended field use.

Delving into its features, the rifle includes a Ruger Marksman Adjustable trigger (3-5 pounds) for a crisp release, a patented Power Bedding integral bedding block system for free-floating the barrel, and a three-position tang safety that locks the bolt while allowing safe loading. The 22-inch cold hammer-forged barrel, threaded with a 5/8"-24 pattern and equipped with a radial port muzzle brake, ensures ultra-precise rifling and longevity. The one-piece, CNC-machined stainless steel bolt with a 70-degree throw offers smooth cycling, while the factory-installed Picatinny scope base and oversized bolt handle enhance optic compatibility and manipulation. The adjustable stock allows length of pull customization from 12 to 13.75 inches, with additional spacers and comb options available at ShopRuger.com. It ships with one 3-round AI-style magazine and steel sling swivel studs.

This rifle is ideally suited for predator and varmint hunting, as well as long-range target shooting, where its lightweight design, adjustable features, and high accuracy excel. Recent reviews, such as those from RifleShooter (2024), praise its balance and precision, making it a top choice for hunters and shooters seeking a reliable, customizable platform for demanding outdoor pursuits.
