This year, however, has been the year of change. I have heard nothing but good things about both the Ruger American Rifle, and the Ruger Precision Rifle, and that from serious shooters. I finally got to get some hands-on time at SHOT Show, and for once I am looking forward to a Ruger box showing up for a gun review. Two actually.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Ruger American Predator<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The American Rifle series has been known since its inception as a very accurate piece. Ruger guarantees 1 MOA, but I have many range reports of closer to .3 MOA and none over .5 MOA from my various friends in the long range game. I cannot wait to get one for review so I can see for myself. Even if you can only coax out 1 M.O.A. though, you are getting a lot for your money. Lightweight, magazine fed, solid stock, and in a wide variety of calibers. The trigger is great out of the box, and the price is absolutely right. $529 MSRP, that is going to be hard to beat. The new variant in the exciting <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ruger.com\/products\/americanRiflePredator\/specSheets\/16948.html\" campaign=\"RugerPredator\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\">6mm Creedmoor<\/a> chambering is of particular interest to me.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Specs<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Chambering<\/strong>: 6mm Creedmoor<\/li>\n<li><strong>Barrel<\/strong>: 22 inches<\/li>\n<li><strong>OA Length<\/strong>: 42 inches<\/li>\n<li><strong>Weight<\/strong>: 6.6 pounds<\/li>\n<li><strong>Stock<\/strong>: Synthetic<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sights<\/strong>: None<\/li>\n<li><strong>Action<\/strong>: Bolt-action<\/li>\n<li><strong>Finish<\/strong>: Matte black<\/li>\n<li><strong>Capacity<\/strong>: 4<\/li>\n<li><strong>MSRP<\/strong>: $529<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div id=\"attachment_68578\" style=\"width: 210px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/DSC01019.jpeg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"rugers-exciting-new-6mm-creedmoor-rifles-shot-show-2017\" title=\"Ruger\u2019s Exciting New 6mm Creedmoor Rifles\u2014SHOT Show 2017\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-68578\" title=\"Ruger\u2019s Exciting New 6mm Creedmoor Rifles\u2014SHOT Show 2017\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-68578\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/DSC01019-200x300.jpeg\" alt=\"Ruger\u2019s Exciting New 6mm Creedmoor Rifles\u2014SHOT Show 2017\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/DSC01019-200x300.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/DSC01019-100x150.jpeg 100w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/DSC01019-683x1024.jpeg 683w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/DSC01019.jpeg 710w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-68578\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Ruger Precision Rifle is now available in the new 6mm Creedmoor chambering.<\/p><\/div>\n<h2><strong>Ruger Precision Rifle<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The Ruger Precision Rifle (also now available in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ruger.com\/products\/precisionRifle\/specSheets\/18016.html\" campaign=\"RugerPrecision\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\">6mm Creedmoor<\/a> chambering) is essentially the Ruger American dressed up in a tactical chassis, and that isn\u2019t a critique. The barrel is a little heavier, and it runs off of SR-25\/M-110\/Magpul magazines, but the action is the same. The chassis system from first look seems well-designed, and has a lot of interchangeability with AR parts. Stock, pistol grip, and though they don\u2019t specify, likely fore end as well.\u00a0 This gun has already made a splash in the Precision Rifle series, and I am looking forward to testing one in depth.<\/p>\n<p>So what is the new part of this, since those have both been released for some time?<\/p>\n<p>6mm Creedmoor, in both rifles. While most manufacturers are just catching up with a 6.5 Creedmoor, Ruger has already made those, and jumped ahead to the 6mm.
