Ruger Precision Rifle
The Ruger Precision Rifle (RPR) is a bolt-action rifle introduced by Sturm, Ruger & Co. on 17 July 2015.
The RPR was originally announced in the following calibers and configurations:
A newer Ruger Precision Rifle "Gen 2" was announced on 6 May 2016 with several enhancements over the original. The new version includes a new handguard, a hybrid muzzle brake (5/8-24 threaded), and a billet aluminum bolt shroud. The announced models were:
A model chambered in 5.56×45mm NATO was announced on 27 March 2017. It has a 1:7 RH twist, 20 in (51 cm) barrel, weighing 9.8 lb (4.4 kg)
Models chambered in the magnum cartridges .338 Lapua Magnum, .300 Win Mag, and .300 PRC went on sale in 2018.
The Ruger Precision Rifle has a proprietary Pre-Fit barrel system. Pre-chambered "Drop-In Ready" barrels can be purchased, and the correct headspace is set using a proprietary barrel nut design. The barrel is threaded to fit the Ruger action threads. This way, a competent gunsmith only needs an AR-15 barrel wrench and proper headspace gauges to fit a new barrel. This eliminates the need for machining by the gunsmith as with traditional barrel mounting solutions.[citation needed]
The RPR is compatible with AR-style handgrips, buttstocks and some types of handguards. The trigger is proprietary, but aftermarket triggers are available.
The RPR uses 10-round detachable Magpul PMAG polymer magazines.
