Q&A
The Ruger American Rifle® Standard is a bolt-action rifle built with innovative designs and modern materials to provide shooters with a practical and cost-effective firearm, meant for serious hunting. Ruger uses a 3-lug bolt design on the American Rifle with a 70° bolt lift, providing plenty of clearance to keep fingers and gloves from getting between the bolt handle and the riflescope. A 2-position tang safety is easily accessible and quick to operate by both right- and left-handed shooters; the bolt can be cycled for loading and unloading the rifle with the safety engaged. A cocking indicator at the end of the bolt can be seen and felt. Ruger designed the Marksman Adjustable™ trigger for the American Rifle to be user adjustable for weight-of-pull. The Marksman trigger is light and crisp, allowing for precision shooting in the field. The Ruger American utilizes a detachable, ultra-reliable rotary magazine that fits flush with the bottom of the stock, adding to the rifle's ease of handling. The stock is constructed from rugged composite with grooves and texturizing on the pistol grip and fore-end, providing a solid, non-slip grip in any hunting environment. The stock features molded-in, Power Bedding® recoil/bedding blocks to rigidly attach the barreled action to the stock and free-float the barrel. A soft rubber recoil pad absorbs recoil considerably. The American Bolt-Action Rifle comes with a drilled and tapped receiver, and scope bases. The Ruger American Rifle is a lightweight, fast-handling, and superbly accurate rifle meant for rugged use in the outdoors. Made in USA.

Another hit from RugerI have the 6.5, which was purchased locally. It's very accurate and a dream to shoot even with Hornady Superformance . Cant wait to try it on a deer

Excellent gunExcellent gun for the money, just an excellent gun period. It is designed and made to be used in the field. It is not fancy but will more than get the job done. I had no problem shooting sub moa groups at 10oyds using Hornady American Whtetail Hunter. This gun shoots well with Hornady interlock bullets! Gun is light, well balanced and made to get the job done.

Rotary Magazine was bad...replaced it with...I got the 6.5 Creedmore. It shot 1 inch three shot groups at 100yd using 140 grain Sellier & Bellot SP. The rotary magazine does not feed the long 140 grain bullets well. I've seen that some shave a U shape into the front so that the bullet will clear it and load. Another fix is to buy a Ruger American Ranch .450 Bushmaster mag. I went with the later and it feeds perfectly now but you lose 1 round worth of capacity. I don't think I will miss the extra round.

Superb gunGreat rifle. Harvested many deer with it. Put a good scope on pick up some Amerian Whitetail ammo and it will shoot MOA at 100yds and beyond. My son loves it.

Great rifle.Happy with the rifle. Would have given 5 stars but the magazine has issues on occasion with feeding. Will order another Mag but may end up trying one of the YouTube fixes for the spring in the mag.

A price point valueI've had this rifle in .308 for over a year now. The fit and finish were a little better than I expected at such a low price, but you can tell it's a budget rifle when handling it. Looking at the groups produced down range however, would lead you to believe you're shooting a rifle that should have cost twice as much. I've gotten great accuracy and despite the light weight recoil is good. About 200 rounds fired and no issues. I find myself taking this rifle to hunt the mountains and leaving my other longer and heavier rifles in the gun safe. Accurate. Lightweight. Reliable.

A great valueI have owned this rifle for several years. Cosmetically there are some issues but minor. Feeds and shoots very reliably. Great bolt and trigger for a gun in this price range. it’s an excellent field gun.

DisappointedRecieved my Ruger American predator chambered in .243 today ... upon taking it out of the box and inspecting the overall appearance of the rifle I noticed that the “free floating barrel” was touching the stock at the front left side and had a large gap on the right side ... I could not even insert a 5 dollar bill under the barrel to test the free float it was that tight ... I then proceeded to as the owners manual said “test the adjustable trigger” by inserting the bolt and dry firing the rifle .. it was very light so I took the stock off to adjust the set screw and wouldn’t you believe my luck ... THERE WASNT ONE!
Sadly this rifle is being sent back tomorrow and now it looks like I’ll have to wait another two to three weeks for a replacement .... very
disappointing.
I have ordered a few rifles from cabelas over the years and never has this occurred ... hopefully they send me a quality “inspected” replacement ... but as for now I’m out 700 bux and have a new vortex paperweight

Can this rifle, regardless of caliber, have a bipod mounted under it?
Asked by: SunDevil
Thank you for your question!
Most bipods I've seen attach to either a sling swivel stud, or a rail (mostly MSRs in the latter case). The rifle pictured here does have the sling swivel installed, so if you purchased a bipod designed for that, it would mount without issue.
I hope this information helps!
