The Ruger Hawkeye Hunter: Built for the Serious Rifleman
The Hawkeye Hunter represents Ruger's commitment to producing a rifle that works as hard as the hunter who carries it. Chambered in the versatile .308 Winchester, this rifle combines time-tested mechanical principles with modern refinements.
Mechanical Excellence
At the heart of the Hawkeye Hunter lies a non-rotating Mauser-type controlled round feed extractor—one of the most reliable case extraction systems ever developed. This design, paired with a fixed blade-type ejector, ensures positive ejection of empty cases as the bolt cycles fully rearward. The rifle features a rugged one-piece stainless steel bolt and a hinged solid-steel floorplate for convenient unloading without cycling each round through the chamber.
Barrel and Accuracy
The free-floated, cold hammer-forged stainless steel barrel measures 20 inches with a 1:10" right-hand twist and features Ruger's 5R rifling at minimum bore and groove dimensions. This precision engineering, combined with minimum headspace and a centralized chamber, delivers the accuracy serious shooters demand. The barrel arrives factory-threaded (5/8"-24) with a thread protector installed, ready for suppressor mounting.
Ergonomic Design
The American walnut stock features rounded contours along the barrel and pistol grip, with wrap-around checkering on the grip and forend for secure handling in all conditions. A three-position safety allows you to lock the bolt or load and unload with the safety engaged—a practical feature in the field.
Optics-Ready Platform
A 20 MOA Picatinny rail secured with four screws sits atop the solid-steel receiver, providing increased elevation adjustment for long-range shooting beyond what traditional integral scope mounts offer. Sling swivel studs are included.
Trigger and Specifications
The LC6 trigger delivers smooth, crisp performance right out of the box. The rifle weighs 7 pounds, measures 40 inches overall, and features a 13.5-inch length of pull.
