This is a well-known and well-trusted line of Ruger rifles, intended for various purposes and built with versatility and performance in mind. There are 10 variants, chambered in different calibers, and the Hunter, Predator, and Long Range are among the most popular ones. Aesthetically, they seem very pleasing to the eye, with classic-look, well-finished wooden stock featuring the sharp, well-cut checkering. The rifles feature the old-fashioned but reliable Mauser action, the non-rotating Mauser-type extractor paired with the fixed blade-type ejector, and the solid-steel receiver with integrated scope mounts, matched with the pair of 1-inch rings. The unique locking system of the rings ensures well-fixed scope once when it’s mounted, and the higher ring is machined at the rear. The box-type magazine is loaded through the receiver and backed up with a blued metal cage and follower. The magazine capacity is 4 rounds in .243 caliber. The other models feature mostly from 3 to 5 mag capacity, and some models have even 10. The hammer-forged barrels are made of stainless steel with Hawkeye Matte Stainless, or alloy steel with Black Matte finish, featuring lengths from 20 to 26 inches. Compact models have a barrel of 16.5 inches. An integrated Ruger Precision Rifle Hybrid Muzzle Brake effectively reduces recoil and minimizes noise. American rifles are made to do the job effectively, so Ruger Hawkeye rifles won’t let you down.
