Ruger American Rimfire 17 HMR: Precision Meets Practicality

The Ruger American Rimfire represents a thoughtful approach to rimfire rifle design. This is a rifle built for shooters who demand accuracy without compromise, whether you're a seasoned marksman or discovering the pleasures of rimfire shooting.

Accuracy and Reliability

Power Bedding System: The integral bedding block positively locates the receiver while free-floating the barrel—a feature that separates serious rifles from casual offerings. This design delivers the accuracy you need for small game and varmint work.

Cold Hammer-Forged Barrel: Ruger's proven manufacturing process creates ultra-precise rifling. The 18-inch threaded barrel (1:9" twist) accepts standard suppressors and muzzle devices, giving you flexibility for your shooting setup.

Ruger Marksman Adjustable Trigger: User-adjustable between 3 and 5 pounds, this trigger allows you to dial in the pull weight that works for your shooting style. A crisp, clean break is essential for precision, and this trigger delivers.
