New Stainless Ruger American Rimfires
Ruger Introduces Four New Stainless Ruger American Rimfire Rifles
Sturm, Ruger & Company introduced four new Target models to the Ruger American Rimfire family. All four of the rifles are constructed from stainless steel with laminate stocks.
Each of these new rifles features a satin, 416 stainless steel barrel, bolt, and receiver. The 18″ cold hammer-forged barrel with a 1/2″-28 threaded muzzle and an 11-degree target crown. The thread protector, bolt release and one-piece scope base are all black to contrast the stainless features of the rifle. The Target model also has a special black laminate stock.
Three of these new models boast an attractive target stock with an Alexander Henry forend which helps to stabilize the rifle when
shooting from sticks. This stock also features a metal trigger guard, rubber buttpad and front and rear swivel studs. This configuration is available in .22 LR, .22 WMR, and .17 HMR calibers.
The fourth addition to the family is chambered in .22 LR and features a classic target thumbhole stock with a generous cutout, symmetrical grip, and broad comb. A flat forend, front and rear swivel studs, metal trigger guard and rubber buttpad with 1/4″ and 1/2″ length of pull spacers installed.
All variations of the new Target Stainless have an overall length of 37″ and an MSRP of $529.00
All Ruger American Rimfire rifles include the Ruger Marksman Adjustable™ trigger, Power Bedding® system, and detachable rotary magazine.
I grew up in Canada, but unfortunately, I did not take advantage of shooting or hunting when I lived there. I just didn’t grow up with it, but I did fish a lot. It’s only after I joined a firearm company that I could reap the benefits of having great mentors teach me the ropes. Now I’m hooked and want to experience everything I can! So much so, I was compelled to co-found this site. I hope you enjoy it, and all feedback is welcome.
