This American-made lever-action rifle is crafted with great pride and attention to detail, staying true to its time-honored design while benefiting from Ruger’s trusted reputation for producing high-quality, reliable firearms. Improved manufacturing processes ensure tight tolerances, resulting in a dependable and visually appealing rifle. Rigorous quality control procedures, including daily function and accuracy audits along with multiple inspections, guarantee exceptional performance. The receiver, lever, and trigger guard plate are CNC machined from stainless steel forgings, while the cold hammer-forged stainless-steel barrel delivers ultra-precise rifling for outstanding accuracy and longevity.

Designed for versatility, the threaded barrel features a factory-installed thread protector with a 5/8"-24 pattern, allowing for easy attachment of a muzzle brake or other barrel accessories. A Picatinny rail provides a stable mounting platform for scope rings and modern optics, while the fiber optic front sight with a tritium ring enhances visibility in low-light conditions. The tubular magazine, with a loading gate located on the receiver, accommodates 8 rounds of .44 Rem Mag or 9 rounds of .44 Special ammunition.

For enhanced comfort and control, the rifle includes a soft rubber buttpad to absorb recoil, a durable laminate buttstock and forend that remain stable in varying weather conditions, and sharp checkering for a secure grip. The oversized lever loop ensures smooth operation, even with heavy gloves, while the slim forend offers an attractive look and comfortable feel. Additional features include a positive push-button cross-bolt manual safety, a traditional half-cock hammer, sling swivel studs, and an offset hammer spur. Designed to reliably feed a wide range of .44 Rem Mag and .44 Special factory ammunition, this rifle seamlessly blends classic design with modern precision and durability.
