Ruger Hawkeye Hunter | 6.5 Creedmoor | 22-inch | 57104

The Ruger Hawkeye Hunter in 6.5 Creedmoor is a full-size bolt-action sporting rifle built around a cold hammer-forged stainless barrel and a classic American walnut stock. It features a 22-inch threaded barrel with a factory thread protector, a 20 MOA Picatinny rail machined to the receiver for long-range elevation, and a three-position safety. The rifle’s LC6 trigger and Mauser-type controlled-round-feed extractor emphasize reliable function and consistent shot release.

A versatile optic that pairs well with this platform and commonly retails under $1,000 is the Vortex Viper PST Gen II 5-25×50, which provides a useful magnification range and elevation adjustment for the cartridge and barrel length. Intended applications for this rifle include field hunting and precision long-range shooting.
