Ruger Gunsite Scout 308 Win 16.1" 10rd Stainless Rifle

The Ruger Gunsite Scout was developed with Gunsite and carries the Gunsite name on the receiver. This one is chambered in 308 Winchester with a 16.1 inch free floated, cold hammer forged barrel in matte stainless, threaded 5/8-24 and capped with a radial port muzzle brake. The stainless steel receiver and one piece stainless bolt sit in a black synthetic stock with an aluminum bedding block and rear pillar.

A forward mounted Picatinny rail takes an intermediate eye relief scope for fast, both eyes open shooting, and Ruger's integral scope mounts on the receiver accept the included rings for a conventional setup. There is a ghost ring adjustable rear aperture and a protected blade front if you want irons only. The non rotating, Mauser type controlled round feed extractor and fixed blade ejector throw empties cleanly, and there is a three position safety. Rounds come from a 10 round detachable box magazine with a push forward release just ahead of the trigger guard. Spacers on the soft rubber buttpad let you set length of pull from 12.75 to 14.25 inches. At about 6.2 pounds, it is a handy general purpose rifle for the woods, the truck or the ranch.
