Ruger SCOUT: Durable 308 Firearm with Reliable Feed System

As operators and instructors we’ve learned the value of gear that simply works when it matters most. Reliable magazines are the unsung backbone of any precision or scout-style rifle setup — they need to feed consistently, resist the elements, and survive the rigors of range time and field use without drama.

RUGER PRECISION/GUNSITE SCOUT combines practical compatibility with rugged materials to deliver a spare or replacement magazine that’s built for modern 308-sized platforms. This 10-round detachable magazine is purpose-built to fit Ruger Precision and Gunsite Scout rifles chambered in .308 Winchester, 6.5 Creedmoor, and other .308 winsized cartridges, making it a versatile option for long-range practice, hunting prep, or tactical applications.

Design and Materials: Built to Last

We pay attention to the materials because longevity matters. This magazine features a 60% glass-filled polymer body that balances strength and weight. Glass-filling increases stiffness and impact resistance compared with standard polymers, helping the mag survive drops, rough magazine changes, and hard use on the range.

Stainless Steel Spring for Consistent Feeding

Feeding reliability starts with the spring. The stainless steel spring in this magazine provides resilient, corrosion-resistant force to ensure positive feeding over hundreds of rounds. For operators who train in varied conditions or store magazines for long periods, stainless spring material reduces the risk of rust-related failures.

Dust Cover Protection

A dust cover is included to protect the follower and cartridge stack during transport and storage. Small debris and grit can degrade function over time; the dust cover helps keep the internals clean when the magazine is carried loose in a pack or storage case.

Compatibility and Applications

This magazine is designed to function with Ruger Precision and Gunsite Scout rifles chambered in .308 Winchester and 6.5 Creedmoor, along with other .308 winsized cartridges. It is also engineered to work with many AI-style bottom metal assemblies commonly used in precision chassis systems, which makes it a practical choice for shooters who cross between factory stocks and aftermarket bottom metals.

Why .308 and 6.5 Creedmoor Matter

.308 Winchester remains a stalwart for hunting, target shooting, and tactical work due to its proven terminal performance and wide ammunition availability. 6.5 Creedmoor has become a go-to for long-range precision thanks to its high ballistic coefficient bullets and manageable recoil. A magazine compatible with both platforms gives shooters the flexibility to configure rifles for either purpose while keeping a consistent reload solution on hand.

Price is accessible for most budgets. At $27.89, this magazine provides a cost-effective spare or replacement option for shooters looking to expand their mag inventory without sacrificing build quality.

Field Use: What to Expect

Out in the field you want predictable function. Expect positive lockup, a reliable feed ramp interface with compatible receivers and bottom metal, and consistent spring tension across a wide temperature range. The glass-filled polymer resists deformation, and the stainless spring resists corrosion — both contribute to longer service life with minimal maintenance.

Maintenance Tips

Keep the follower and feed lips free of grit; a quick wipe and a drop of light oil on the spring when servicing will extend life. If you use the dust cover during transport, inspect it before loading to ensure no debris accumulated beneath it. These small habits keep feeding consistent and reduce the chance of stovepipes or other common magazine-related stoppages.

Installation and Fit Notes

When installing the RUGER PRECISION/GUNSITE SCOUT magazine into AI-style bottom metal or aftermarket chassis, verify feed lip alignment and bolt-to-cartridge relationship during a function check. Many chassis manufacturers maintain tight tolerances; take a safe, unloaded check to ensure the magazine drops free, locks up, and presents rounds at the correct angle for the bolt to strip reliably.

For those running multiple rifles or switching calibers in compatible platforms, this magazine’s .308 winsized geometry provides a universal spare across several setups, simplifying logistics for range bags and field kits.
