Ruger Hawkeye Hunter .243 Win 16.6″ TB Satin SS/Walnut 67106

The Ruger Hawkeye Hunter is a bolt-action hunting rifle chambered in .243 Winchester built around a satin stainless receiver and a free-floated, cold hammer-forged threaded barrel. It pairs a classic American walnut fixed stock with Ruger’s Mauser-type controlled-round-feed extractor and an LC6 single-stage trigger for straightforward, reliable operation. This configuration is well suited for medium-game hunting and precision varmint work. A durable scope such as the Vortex Crossfire II 3-9×40 is a practical optic choice that complements the rifle’s handling and the integral-mount receiver without exceeding typical sport-optic budgets.
