The Ruger American Gen II Predator .22 ARC rifle pairs a green splatter stock with a Burnt Bronze Cerakote barreled action, built for coyotes, varmints and long shots across open country (Ruger part no. 46940). Its 22-inch cold hammer-forged barrel has deep spiral flutes, a 1:7 twist for the long, heavy .22 ARC bullets, and a factory radial port muzzle brake on 1/2-28 threads. The Ruger Marksman Adjustable trigger sets between 3 and 5 pounds, and the Power Bedding block free-floats the barrel. Feeding comes from a 10-round AR-style magazine, a handy choice for shooters who already own AR magazines. A one-piece Picatinny base comes installed, ready for a scope.
