The bolt-action market values reliability and mechanical simplicity above all else. For shooters seeking a robust controlled-round-feed system and a rugged stainless finish, this rifle stands out in field and range performance.

RUGER HAWKEYE delivers a non-rotating Mauser-type controlled round feed extractor that provides one of the most positive case extraction systems ever invented. The design uses a fixed blade-type ejector that positively ejects empty cases as the bolt moves fully rearward, minimizing failures to extract and helping maintain consistent follow-up shots.

Key features and field benefits

The RUGER HAWKEYE pairs a cold hammer-forged barrel with a one-piece stainless steel bolt for long-term accuracy and durability. Cold hammer forging produces a consistent bore profile and extended barrel life, which benefits both frequent range use and long-term hunting applications. The one-piece bolt enhances alignment and strength under repeated cycling.

Controlled round feed and ejector advantages

Controlled round feed means each cartridge is grasped by the extractor as it leaves the magazine and stays under control until ejection. In practical terms, this reduces double-feeds and increases reliability during rapid manipulations or in adverse conditions. The fixed blade ejector ensures the case is driven clear on full bolt travel, a simple mechanical solution that works every time.

Safety and finish

RUGER HAWKEYE’s three-position safety gives shooters the ability to lock the bolt, safely load and unload with the safety engaged, or fire. The matte stainless steel finish resists corrosion in wet environments and provides a low-glare profile for hunting and tactical use. At a price point of $1200.99, this model positions itself as a premium, durable bolt-action option.

RUGER’s legacy and the model’s designation as Various indicate multiple chamberings and configurations are available, making the platform adaptable for big-game hunting, backcountry precision, or trusted range duty. View product details and pricing
