The Ruger Hawkeye FTW Hunter (brand part no. 57154) chambers .308 Winchester in a compact 22-inch-barreled configuration, built around a non-rotating Mauser-type controlled-round-feed extractor and a Pro-Series H-S Precision tan-black speckled stock. A hinged solid-steel floorplate with an engraved FTW Hunter logo allows easy unloading without chambering each round, and a 20 MOA Picatinny rail adds long-range elevation capability. Ruger’s Muzzle Brake System lets shooters swap between a recoil-reducing brake and a matched weight without shifting the rifle’s zero.
