The Ruger American Rifle Gen II Ranch .450 Bushmaster is a compact bolt-action rifle (brand part no. 46922) built for hunters who need a straight-wall cartridge for deer-season regulations without carrying a full-length rifle. Ruger finishes this Ranch configuration in FDE Splatter over the Gen II American stock, pairing a cold hammer-forged, threaded 16.1-inch barrel with a factory-installed muzzle brake to tame recoil from the big .450 Bushmaster round. Ruger’s Power Bedding system locates the receiver and free-floats the barrel for accuracy that holds up hunt after hunt. It’s a compact, hard-hitting addition to our bolt-action rifles lineup for brush and blind hunting alike. A user-adjustable Marksman trigger and 3-position tang safety round out a rifle built to be carried all day and shoulder fast.
