The Ruger Scout .350 Legend is a bolt-action rifle (Ruger part no. 06841) built around Jeff Cooper’s scout rifle concept: compact, versatile, and fast to run at close and mid-range distances. A 16.5-inch barrel keeps overall length short for quick handling in tight cover, while the hybrid muzzle brake tames recoil from the straight-walled .350 Legend cartridge. A factory-installed forward scope rail lets you mount a scout-style optic ahead of the receiver without giving up the rifle’s adjustable rear sight, and the synthetic stock adjusts for length of pull to fit different shooters. Finished in matte black for a durable, no-frills exterior, this rifle is built for hunters who want one do-everything gun for brush, blinds, or straight-wall-only hunting areas. Ruger has kept the Scout lineup lightweight and reliable since its introduction.
