According to the legendary Jeff Cooper, a scout rifle is a magazine-fed, bolt-action rifle chambered to utilise a full-powered rifle cartridge with a relatively short-barrel, and designed to employ iron sights or a low-powered scope mounted forward of the action. The Ruger Gunsite Scout meets all these criteria.
Features:
• The forward-mounted Picatinny rail allows for the mounting of modern optics, like an intermediate eye relief scope (not included), for "both eyes open" sighting and super-fast target acquisition.
• Also offers a built-in, accurate sighting system with ghost ring adjustable rear aperture sight and a non-glare, protected blade front sight.
• Detachable box magazine with push-forward magazine release just forward of the trigger guard.
• Patented integral scope mounts, machined directly on the solid-steel receiver, provide a stable mounting surface for scope rings, eliminating a potential source of looseness and inaccuracy in the field (scope rings included).
• Soft rubber butt pad with butt pad spacers allow the rifle to be properly sized for different shooters or varying levels of outerwear or defensive gear (three 1/2" spacers included).
• Free-floated, cold hammer-forged barrel with ultra-precise rifling that provides exceptional accuracy, longevity, and easy cleaning.
Rugged and reliable with a glass-reinforced nylon trigger guard and magazine well.
• Non-rotating, Mauser-type controlled round feed extractor is the most positive case extraction system ever invented and features a fixed blade-type ejector that positively ejects the empty cases as the bolt is moved fully rearward.
• Also includes rugged, one-piece, stainless steel bolt; three-position safety; sling swivel studs.
• Laminate stock models feature durable laminated wood that free floats the barrel and remains stable through weather and temperature extremes.
