The Ruger American G2 Ranch Rifle in .400 Legend (Ruger part no. 46924) shortens the American G2 platform down to a compact 16.1-inch threaded barrel, giving hunters a shorter, more maneuverable straight-wall rifle for close-cover hunting or truck-gun duty. Finished in a distinctive FDE Cerakote splatter pattern, this Ranch model comes with a Picatinny scope base already installed and shares the same 5-round AR-style magazine and 3-position safety as the standard American G2. It’s built for hunters who want the compact handling of a ranch rifle without giving up .400 Legend’s straight-wall stopping power.
