Precision hunters and long-range shooters demand rifles that blend reliable actions with accuracy-focused design. The combination of a modern stock, a tuned trigger, and an optic-ready platform sets the baseline for a rifle that can perform in variable conditions and deliver repeatable hits at extended ranges.

RUGER AMERICAN PREDATOR WITH VORTEX CROSSFIRE II RIFLESCOPE

The RUGER AMERICAN PREDATOR WITH VORTEX CROSSFIRE II RIFLESCOPE arrives factory-equipped for the field: a free-floating, cold hammer-forged threaded barrel, a factory one-piece scope rail, and a Vortex Crossfire II 4-12×44 optic with Dead-Hold BDC. At a street price of $693.99, this rifle targets shooters who want out-of-the-box capability without a premium price. Shop this product

Why 6.5 Creedmoor Matters

The rifle is chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor, a caliber known for long-range consistency, flat trajectory, and excellent ballistic coefficients. For hunters and tactical shooters, 6.5 Creedmoor reduces wind drift and preserves energy at distance—making shots count where ethical margins are tight.

Key Features and What They Mean

Barrel, Bedding, and Accuracy

The heavier-tapered, cold hammer-forged barrel and Ruger’s patent-pending Power Bedding integral bedding block system work together to free-float the barrel and positively locate the receiver. The result: minute-of-angle potential that translates directly into more effective shots in the field. The spec sheet lists the barrel at 22″ with an 18″ twist and a matte black alloy-steel finish.

Action, Trigger, and Controls

The one-piece, three-lug bolt with a 70° throw and full-diameter bolt body provides ample scope clearance and smooth cycling via dual cocking cams. The Ruger Marksman Adjustable trigger lets shooters dial between 3 and 5 pounds for a crisp, repeatable break. A visible tang safety and soft rubber recoil-reducing buttpad add control and confidence for follow-up shots.

Ergonomics and Practical Details

The lightweight moss green synthetic stock includes modern fore-end contouring and grip serrations for a positive hold, plus a flush-fit 4-round rotary magazine and sling swivel studs. The threaded muzzle and factory scope rail make accessory integration straightforward—verify the barrel thread pattern listed on the spec sheet before selecting a muzzle device.

Why This Rifle Stands Out

Combining a proven Ruger action, an adjustable Marksman trigger, a factory-mounted Vortex Crossfire II 4-12×44 optic, and a 6.5 Creedmoor chambering, this package is tuned for real-world accuracy at a competitive price point. For shooters prioritizing a ready-to-go bolt-action platform for hunting or precision practice, the RUGER AMERICAN PREDATOR WITH VORTEX CROSSFIRE II RIFLESCOPE represents a balanced value proposition.
