Designed to address the needs of serious hunters and sport shooters alike, this rifle is crafted to deliver exceptional performance right out of the box. Whether you're tracking whitetail deer through dense brush, pursuing elk across vast landscapes, or honing your skills at the shooting range, the Ruger American Rifle provides the confidence-inspiring precision and robust construction required to make every shot count.

Unlocking Precision: Advanced Features for Superior Performance

The core of the Ruger American Rifle's legendary accuracy lies in its meticulously engineered features, each designed to enhance your shooting experience and ensure repeatable results. It's a rifle built from the ground up to offer the kind of performance typically found in much higher-priced firearms, making it an exceptional value for its class.

Revolutionary Power Bedding System for Consistent Accuracy

• What it is: Ruger's innovative, patent-pending Power Bedding system is an integral bedding block that precisely locates the receiver.
• How it helps you: This critical design element ensures that the rifle's barrel is completely free-floated. Why is this important? A free-floated barrel eliminates any contact points with the stock that could otherwise introduce stress or inconsistencies, leading to variations in barrel harmonics. The result is outstanding, repeatable accuracy, shot after shot, allowing you to consistently hit your target even at extended ranges. This system directly contributes to the rifle's minute-of-angle (MOA) accuracy claim, meaning it's capable of grouping shots within one inch at 100 yards under optimal conditions.

Smooth and Reliable Bolt Operation

• Designed for efficiency: The rifle features a one-piece, three-lug bolt with a 70-degree throw. This shorter bolt throw provides ample clearance for larger scope objectives, preventing interference when cycling the action.
• Effortless Cycling: The full-diameter bolt body combined with dual cocking cams ensures remarkably smooth and easy cycling. This makes rapid follow-up shots more manageable and reduces the effort required to operate the action, which is particularly beneficial in cold weather or when wearing gloves. Hunters will appreciate the quiet and fluid operation when stealth is paramount.

Ruger Marksman Adjustable Trigger: Tailored to Your Preference

• Customizable Pull: The Ruger Marksman Adjustable Trigger is a standout feature, allowing shooters to customize the pull weight between 3 and 5 pounds.
• Enhanced Control: A crisp, clean break with minimal creep is essential for precise shot placement. This user-adjustable trigger empowers you to fine-tune the trigger feel to your exact preference, promoting better trigger control and ultimately, tighter groups. It's a significant advantage for both precision target shooting and critical hunting scenarios where every millisecond and every ounce of pressure counts.

Cold Hammer-Forged Barrel: Durability Meets Precision

• Superior Construction: The 22-inch barrel is cold hammer-forged from high-quality steel. This manufacturing process creates a barrel with ultra-precise rifling, leading to exceptional accuracy and longevity.
• Long-lasting Performance: Cold hammer forging increases the barrel's material strength and ensures consistent dimensions throughout, providing a durable and reliable barrel that maintains its accuracy over thousands of rounds. For a hunter or shooter who puts their rifle through its paces, this means consistent performance season after season.

Ergonomic Synthetic Stock with GoWild Camo I-M Brush Finish

• Comfort and Handling: The lightweight synthetic stock is designed with ergonomic principles in mind, ensuring quick, easy handling in various shooting positions. It features modern forend contouring and grip serrations for a secure and comfortable hold, even in wet conditions.
• Recoil Absorption: A soft rubber buttpad effectively absorbs recoil, significantly improving shooter comfort during extended range sessions or when firing powerful rounds like the .308 Winchester.
• Aesthetic and Practical Camouflage: The GoWild Camo I-M Brush finish is not just visually appealing; it provides effective concealment in diverse outdoor environments, from dense forests to open fields, blending seamlessly into natural surroundings. This natural camouflage pattern helps hunters remain undetected, crucial for close encounters with game.

Tang Safety for Immediate Control

• Intuitive Operation: The tang safety is conveniently located on the rifle's tang (the rear upper part of the receiver), providing immediate and easy access for both right-handed shooters.
• Enhanced Security: This intuitive design allows for quick and positive engagement or disengagement, ensuring safe handling in the field while allowing for swift action when an opportunity arises.

Beyond the Basics: Enhancing Versatility and Durability

The Ruger American Rifle in .308 Winchester doesn't just stop at fundamental accuracy; it incorporates advanced features that broaden its utility and increase its resilience in the most demanding environments.

Burnt Bronze Cerakote Finish: Ultimate Protection

• What it is: The barrel and receiver feature a striking Burnt Bronze Cerakote finish. Cerakote is a ceramic-based coating renowned for its exceptional durability and protective qualities.
• Unrivaled Resistance: This finish offers superior resistance to abrasion, corrosion, and chemical exposure, far surpassing traditional bluing or other firearm finishes. For hunters operating in wet, muddy, or salty conditions, the Cerakote finish ensures that the rifle's vital metal components are shielded from rust and wear, maintaining both its appearance and structural integrity for years to come. It also provides a non-reflective surface, which is beneficial for stealth in hunting scenarios.

Threaded Barrel and Muzzle Brake: Adaptability and Recoil Management

• Versatile Muzzle: The 22-inch barrel is factory-threaded with a 5/8"x24 thread pattern. This universal threading allows for easy attachment of a variety of muzzle devices, including the included muzzle brake.
• Reduced Recoil and Muzzle Rise: The integrated muzzle brake effectively redirects propellant gases, significantly reducing felt recoil and muzzle rise. This allows for quicker follow-up shots and enhances shooter comfort, particularly beneficial during extended range sessions or for newer shooters.
• Suppressor Ready: For those who opt for reduced noise and improved hearing protection, the threaded barrel is also ready to accept a sound suppressor (with proper licensing and accessories), offering a quieter and more pleasant shooting experience.

Picatinny Rail Steel Receiver: Optics Ready

• Integrated Mounting Solution: The steel receiver comes equipped with a Picatinny rail. This industry-standard mounting platform provides a robust and versatile base for attaching a wide array of optical sights, including rifle scopes and red dot sights.
• Secure Optics: The Picatinny rail ensures a secure and stable mounting surface, allowing for repeatable zeroing of your chosen optic. This is crucial for maintaining accuracy, especially when the rifle is subjected to harsh conditions or transport.

Who Is This Rifle For? Real-World Applications and Benefits

The Ruger American Full Size Rifle in .308 Winchester (UPC: 736676269266) is an ideal choice for a wide spectrum of shooters, offering solutions to common challenges faced in the field and at the range.

• Deer Hunters and Big Game Enthusiasts: The .308 Winchester caliber is incredibly popular for good reason. It’s a highly effective cartridge for medium to large game such as whitetail deer, mule deer, black bear, and even elk within reasonable ranges. The rifle’s minute-of-angle accuracy ensures ethical and clean kills, while the GoWild Camo stock helps you blend into your environment. The durable Cerakote finish protects against the elements encountered during long hunting seasons.
• Precision Target Shooters: While designed as a hunting rifle, its inherent accuracy, adjustable trigger, and free-floated barrel make it highly capable on the target range. Shooters looking to improve their grouping or engage in precision shooting sports will find its performance commendable for its price point.
• Entry-Level to Experienced Shooters: For new shooters, the adjustable trigger and recoil-absorbing buttpad make it comfortable and forgiving to learn on. For seasoned veterans, its robust construction and consistent accuracy offer a reliable workhorse for any outdoor adventure.
• Those Seeking a Durable, All-Weather Firearm: The Burnt Bronze Cerakote finish and synthetic stock are incredibly resistant to water, mud, snow, and extreme temperatures. If your hunting grounds involve challenging climates, this rifle will withstand the abuse and continue to perform.
• Users Who Value Customization: The threaded barrel and Picatinny rail provide excellent platforms for personalization, allowing you to easily add optics and muzzle devices to tailor the rifle to your specific needs.

Selecting Ammunition for Your .308 Winchester Rifle

The .308 Winchester is one of the most versatile and widely available rifle cartridges globally, making it an excellent choice for a do-it-all firearm. When selecting ammunition for your Ruger American Rifle, consider your primary use case:

• Hunting Ammunition: For big game, look for bullets designed for controlled expansion and deep penetration, such as soft points, bonded bullets (e.g., Nosler AccuBond, Hornady InterBond), or monolithic copper bullets (e.g., Barnes TSX). Common bullet weights for hunting range from 150 to 180 grains.
• Target Shooting/Plinking: More affordable full metal jacket (FMJ) rounds are suitable for general range practice. For precision target shooting, match-grade ammunition with boat-tail hollow point (BTHP) bullets (e.g., Sierra MatchKing) in weights like 168 or 175 grains will deliver the best accuracy.
• Varmint Control: Lighter, frangible bullets (e.g., 110-130 grains) are effective for small predators and varmints, offering high velocity and rapid energy transfer upon impact.

Always ensure you are using the correct caliber ammunition (.308 Winchester or 7.62x51mm NATO, though .308 Win offers slightly higher pressure) and consult your rifle's manual for any specific recommendations.

Essential Accessories for Your Ruger American Rifle

To maximize the performance and utility of your Ruger American Rifle, consider pairing it with a few key accessories:

• Optics (Rifle Scope): Given the rifle's inherent accuracy and the integrated Picatinny rail, a quality rifle scope is a must-have for hunting and precision shooting. Choose magnification levels appropriate for your intended shooting distances (e.g., 3-9x for general hunting, higher magnification for long-range target work).
• Sling: A durable and comfortable sling (easily attached to the included sling swivel studs) is invaluable for carrying the rifle in the field, freeing your hands for other tasks, and providing a stable shooting brace.
• Bipod: For prone shooting or stable rests from a bench, a bipod can significantly enhance accuracy, especially at longer distances.
• Cleaning Kit: Regular cleaning and maintenance are crucial for preserving the rifle's accuracy and longevity. A good cleaning rod, bore brush, patches, and appropriate solvents/oils are essential.
• Hard Case: Protect your investment during transport and storage with a sturdy hard-shell rifle case.

Maintaining Your Investment: Care Tips for Longevity

The Ruger American Rifle is built for durability, but proper care is essential to maintain its performance and appearance for years to come. After each use, especially in harsh conditions:

• Clean the Barrel: Use a bore brush and patches with an appropriate bore cleaner to remove powder fouling and copper residue.
• Wipe Down Metal Surfaces: Even with the protective Cerakote, wipe down all metal surfaces with a lightly oiled cloth to prevent any potential corrosion. Pay attention to areas not covered by Cerakote, like the bolt body.
• Lubricate Moving Parts: Apply a small amount of gun oil to the bolt lugs, bolt body, and other friction points to ensure smooth operation.
• Check Screws: Periodically check that all action screws and scope mount screws are properly torqued.
• Store Properly: Store the rifle unloaded in a safe, dry environment, preferably in a dehumidified gun safe.
