Ruger Precision® Rifle chambered in 6mm Creedmoor is the newest addition to the Ruger Custom Shop® line of guns from Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. (NYSE: RGR). This new model, developed in partnership with Team Ruger Captain Doug Koenig, expands on the already competitive Ruger Precision Rifle to give a factory-built handgun tailored exclusively for long-range competition.

The factory-installed TriggerTech Trigger with Frictionless Release Technology™ on the new Custom Shop Ruger Precision Rifle provides an exceedingly sharp break, minimal overtravel, and an extremely short and tactile reset. On the front of the magazine well, a unique barrier stop is added to improve the shooter's positional support during competition by providing a solid and repeatable shooting position. Internally, the rifle has a new firing pin tip shape that improves compatibility with a wide range of primers while reducing the amount of force required to manipulate the bolt.

The rifle's unique, heavy-contour (.850" at muzzle) free-floated barrel is cold hammer-forged from chrome-molly stainless steel and incorporates 5R rifling for less bullet upset. Minimum bore and groove dimensions (air-gauged for process control) as well as a centralised chamber provide exceptional precision, lifespan, and cleaning convenience. The barrel has a 1:7" twist rate, a 5/8"-24 threaded muzzle, and an APA Muzzle Brake (.264 bore) to efficiently reduce recoil, allowing for quick shot observation.

A hard-coat anodized aluminium, free-float handguard surrounds the stainless steel barrel and incorporates M-LOK® slots on all four sides for enhanced scope clearance and easy mounting of M-LOK-compatible rails and accessories. The handguard has a flat bottom for stability and a 1.50" dovetail on the bottom, making the gun compatible with RRS S.O.A.R. and comparable QD systems.

The rifle incorporates a Magpul® MOE® K2+ grip to provide a more vertical grip angle in a full-sized design, thanks to its ability to take AR-style grips and buttstocks. A robust Cerakote® coating is applied to select sections of the rifle for increased wear resistance. This model includes two Magpul PMAG® magazines as well as a Sorbothane® cheek pad for a comfortable and solid cheek-to-stock weld for speedy target acquisition.

The Ruger Custom Shop Precision Rifle in 6mm Creedmoor is unrivalled in terms of value. This new offering gives a long-range, competition-ready rifle straight from the Ruger factory, with top-tier accuracy, adjustable ergonomics, and the rugged reliability and affordability for which Ruger is known.
