Ruger American Predator Gen II 6.5 PRC 22" Rifle

Ruger American Predator Gen II: Purpose-Built for Modern Hunting

The Ruger American Predator Gen II represents a thoughtful evolution in affordable, reliable rifle design. Chambered in 6.5 PRC—a cartridge that has earned respect among serious hunters—this rifle combines practical features with genuine accuracy potential.

Barrel and Action

The 22-inch medium contour barrel features deep spiral flutes that reduce muzzle weight while maintaining the stiffness necessary for consistent accuracy. A factory-installed radial port muzzle brake helps manage recoil, and the barrel is threaded (5/8x24) for suppressor compatibility. The cold hammer-forged barrel ensures precise rifling and exceptional longevity.

The one-piece bolt is CNC machined from stainless steel with Ruger's familiar three-lug design and a 70-degree throw that provides ample scope clearance. The oversized bolt handle facilitates positive manipulation in the field.

Trigger and Safety

The Ruger Marksman Adjustable trigger offers a crisp release with user-adjustable pull weight between 3 and 5 pounds—allowing you to dial in the feel that works best for your shooting style. The three-position tang safety locks the bolt while still allowing the rifle to be loaded with the safety engaged.

Stock and Ergonomics

The green splatter-finished synthetic stock provides excellent grip without sharp edges. An installed spacer system allows length-of-pull adjustment from 12 to 13.75 inches, accommodating different shooters and clothing layers. The low comb improves sight alignment when using magnified optics. A soft rubber recoil pad with progressive collapse geometry helps manage felt recoil.

Accuracy and Bedding

Ruger's patented Power Bedding integral bedding block system positively locates the receiver while free-floating the barrel—a proven approach to delivering consistent accuracy.
