Ruger American 17 HMR Bolt-Action Rifle with Fiber Optic Front Sight and Threaded Barrel

Since its release in 2013, the Ruger American Rimfire® line of bolt-action rifles has become extremely popular. Building on this success, Ruger now introduces the American Rimfire Threaded Barrel Rifle. This rifle features a 18″ cold hammered-forged barrel with a 1/2″-28 thread pattern and a factory-installed thread protector.

The Ruger American Rimfire® shares many of the features that made the centerfire Ruger American Rifle® popular among hunters and shooters alike. It features a Ruger Marksman Adjustable™ trigger and patent-pending Power Bedding® integral bedding block system that positively locates the receiver and free-floats the barrel, making these rifles true performers at the range and in the field.
