Ruger Precision Rifle

The Ruger Precision Rifle (RPR) is available in several long-range calibers, most notably 6.5 Creedmoor and .308 Winchester. The 6.5 Creedmoor version became an instant hit when it was introduced in 2015 due to the caliber's excellent ballistic coefficient.

Yes, the Ruger Precision Rifle features an AR-15 style Hogue pistol grip and a fully adjustable folding telescoping stock that mimics standard AR buffer tube dimensions. This design choice allows shooters to easily swap out the stock with widely available aftermarket AR furniture.

When it was released in 2015, the RPR was heavily praised for making long-range precision shooting highly accessible to beginners by pricing it around $1,100. It offers a factory blue-printed action and heavy barrel that rival custom builds costing thousands of dollars more.

Depending on the specific barrel length and caliber, the Ruger Precision Rifle typically weighs around 9.6 to 10 pounds out of the box. This weight helps absorb recoil from heavy magnum cartridges, though it can make the rifle cumbersome to carry on long hunts.
