Ruger Hawkeye FTW Hunter | 6.5 PRC | 24″ | 57163

The Ruger Hawkeye FTW Hunter is a full-size bolt-action rifle chambered in 6.5 PRC with a 24-inch cold hammer-forged stainless barrel and a removable Ruger muzzle brake. It combines a Pro-Series H-S Precision tan/black speckled synthetic stock with a one-piece stainless bolt and a 20 MOA Picatinny rail machined on the receiver for elevated long-range capability. The design emphasizes reliable controlled-round-feed extraction, straightforward three-position safety operation, and out-of-box accuracy from the LC6 trigger. For a pairing optic under $1,000, the Vortex Viper PST Gen II 3-15×44 is a practical choice for this platform and use cases.

Applications: field use and precision/long-range shooting.
