Ruger American Rimfire 17 HMR 18" Bolt-Action Rifle

Ruger American Rimfire® Rifle - A Testament to Precision and Adaptability

The Ruger American Rimfire® rifle stands as a paragon of versatility and precision in the realm of bolt-action rifles. Designed with both novice shooters and seasoned marksmen in mind, this firearm offers adaptability that few can match.

Each model includes two interchangeable stock modules, providing options for comb height tailored to either scope or iron sight use. Whether you choose the standard models with long length of pull modules or opt for compact versions available at ShopRuger.com, these stocks can be swapped effortlessly by removing the rear sling swivel stud—ensuring customization takes mere seconds.

Central to its design is the patent-pending Power Bedding® integral bedding block system. This innovation ensures precise receiver alignment while free-floating the barrel—a configuration that enhances accuracy significantly. Complementing this is Ruger's cold hammer-forged barrel, which promises ultra-precise rifling for exceptional longevity and ease of maintenance.

The rifle’s ergonomic black synthetic stock combines classic aesthetics with modern functionality, featuring contoured fore-end grips designed for rapid handling. Safety remains paramount; thus, it incorporates an accessible tang safety mechanism that's intuitive and reliable under any circumstance.

A notable feature is its user-friendly 10/22®-style extended magazine release facilitating smooth detachment from its flush-mounted JMX-1 9-round rotary magazine—highlighting convenience without compromising capacity.
