Ruger Mark IV Hunter: Purpose-Built for Accuracy
The Mark IV Hunter represents Ruger's commitment to delivering a refined, accurate rimfire pistol for serious shooters. This is a firearm engineered for those who demand precision in a .22 LR platform.
Design and Construction
The Mark IV Hunter features a one-piece, precision CNC-machined grip frame paired with a lightweight, aerospace-grade aluminum receiver. The 6.88" fluted bull barrel is constructed from stainless steel and finished in satin stainless, providing both durability and a professional appearance. The fluted design reduces weight while maintaining the rigidity necessary for consistent accuracy.
Sighting and Customization
Sighting System:
- Fiber optic front sight for rapid target acquisition
- Fully adjustable rear sight for precise zeroing
- Drilled and tapped receiver accepts Weaver or Picatinny-style rails for easy optics mounting
Ergonomics and Controls
The checkered laminate grip panels provide a secure, non-slip hold with a natural pointing angle. The ergonomic bolt stop and easy-to-grasp bolt ears ensure smooth, reliable operation. An ambidextrous manual safety can be converted to left-side only using the included washer, accommodating both right and left-handed shooters.
Reliability and Maintenance
The internal cylindrical bolt construction ensures permanent sight-to-barrel alignment, delivering superior accuracy potential compared to conventional moving-slide designs. Simple one-button takedown allows quick field-stripping and thorough chamber-to-muzzle cleaning without tools. The magazine disconnect prevents discharge when the magazine is removed—a valuable safety feature.
Capacity and Magazines
10-round capacity with push-button magazine release conveniently located on the left side of the frame. Magazines drop free for faster reloading. Two 10-round magazines are included.
