Published by

In yet ANOTHER new product announcement, Ruger has launched magnum Ruger Precision Rifles chambered in 338 Lapua Magnum and 300 Winchester Magnum.

The new caliber offerings build on the successful Ruger Precision platform that shooters have cut their teeth on since its introduction in 2015. The largest change to the rifle beyond the slightly stretched action and the new muzzle brake is an updated handguard capable of accepting Arca Swiss compatible accessories.

The new magnum Ruger Precision Rifles carry an MSRP of $2099. Learn more on the Ruger website.

More from Ruger:

Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. (NYSE: RGR) proudly announces that the popular Ruger Precision® Rifle is now chambered in .338 Lapua Magnum and .300 Winchester Magnum. These new magnum caliber models pair exceptional long-range accuracy potential with tremendous down-range energy, broadening the appeal of an already very popular rifle.

These rifles feature a heavy-contour barrel (0.875″ at the muzzle) as well as a Ruger Precision® Rifle Magnum Muzzle Brake with tunable compensator to effectively reduce recoil and muzzle jump. They also feature a hard-coat anodized, 18″ free-float handguard configured with Magpul® M-LOK® accessory attachment slots on all four sides for improved scope clearance and easy mounting of M-LOK-compatible rails and accessories. Integral QD sling attachment points eliminate the need for additional adaptors and a flat bottom 1.50″ dovetail is compatible with RRS S.O.A.R. and similar QD systems.

Like all Ruger Precision Rifles, these new models feature a highly accurate, free-floated barrel that is cold hammer-forged from 4140 chrome-moly steel with 5R rifling for minimum bullet upset. Minimum bore and groove dimensions (air-gauged for process control) and a centralized chamber deliver outstanding accuracy, longevity and ease of cleaning.

The .338 Lapua Magnum model features a 1:9.375″ twist rate while the .300 Winchester Magnum model features a 1:9″ twist, both of which stabilize long-for-caliber projectiles. These rifles ship with two, 5-round AI-Style magazines.

The Ruger Precision Rifle is also equipped with an AR-style left-folding stock with adjustable comb height and length of pull, and ergonomic pistol grip. The magnum caliber models feature a 30 MOA Picatinny rail and the Ruger Marksman Adjustable™ trigger, which provides a user-adjustable pull weight range between 2.25 and 5 pounds.

The value of the Ruger Precision Rifle is unmatched. With top-tier accuracy, adjustable ergonomics and the rugged reliability for which Ruger is renowned, these new chambering options broaden the Ruger Precision Rifle's utility across a wide range of readily available ammunition.
