The Ruger American Rifle Generation II Patrol in .300 Win Mag (brand part no. 56905) puts a magnum cartridge in the short, handy Patrol configuration: a 20-inch cold hammer-forged bull-contour barrel, threaded 5/8-24 with a protector installed, in Ruger’s Graphite Black Cerakote. The Gen II stock is a black splatter synthetic with an adjustable length of pull from 12 to 13.75 inches via a removable spacer and a soft rubber recoil pad, which matters on a .300 Winchester Magnum. It feeds from a 3-round single-stack detachable magazine, wears a factory-installed one-piece Picatinny base and no iron sights, and is built on Ruger’s Power Bedding block with a one-piece stainless three-lug bolt and a 70-degree throw. The Marksman Adjustable trigger is user-set from 3 to 5 pounds, and the whole rifle weighs 6.8 pounds at 41.75 inches overall. For a hunter who wants a suppressor-ready magnum that stays short enough for a truck or a treestand, this is the Patrol to look at.
