Key features and why they matter

Power Bedding and a free-floated, cold hammer-forged barrel deliver a stable platform and precise rifling for longevity and easy maintenance. The cold hammer-forged process produces durable, consistent rifling that helps the rifle retain accuracy through heavy use.

Modular stock and ergonomics

Two interchangeable compact length-of-pull stock modules let you dial in comb height for scoped or iron sight setups. Changing modules is a fast, tool-free operation: remove the rear sling swivel stud and swap modules in seconds. For shooters who share a rifle across family members or switch between optics and iron sights, that flexibility is invaluable. Mid-range buyers can View product details and confirm fit options.

Trigger, safety, and mounting

The Ruger Marksman Adjustable trigger and tang safety let shooters fine-tune pull weight and engagement for controlled follow-through. The rifle includes a 3/8″ rimfire scope base machined into the receiver (drilled and tapped), making optics mounting secure and repeatable. Controls include a 10/22-style extended magazine release for quick reloads and familiar handling.

Practical field performance and sights

Factory-equipped sights—Williams fiber optic front and an adjustable “V” slot folding-leaf rear—provide usable backup sighting and fast acquisition in low light. Sling swivel studs are included for easy carry and stabilization in shooting positions. The package is balanced for target work, training, and small-game field use.

For shooters seeking an adjustable, accurate bolt-action rimfire with modern bedding and a user-focused feature set, the RUGER AMERICAN RIMFIRE LRT is a strong contender at $395.99. Check availability on the shop page to purchase through the retailer and see current stock and shipping options.
