Key features that matter in the field

The Ranch model’s synthetic stock and modern forend contouring keep weight down and provide snag-free handling when transitioning from vehicle to field. Grip serrations ensure consistent purchase in wet or dirty conditions. A rubber buttpad mitigates felt recoil from the 450 Bushmaster round, helping follow-up shots remain controlled during dynamic situations.

Smooth action and precise trigger

The dual-cocking cam system in the bolt provides a smooth, predictable cycling feel that reduces shooter-induced timing errors. Paired with the Ruger Marksman Adjustable trigger, the rifle lets you dial in a crisp, repeatable pull for improved accuracy — a real advantage when quick, accurate shots matter.
