Features

The Ruger American Rimfire is a right‑hand bolt‑action rifle chambered in .17 HMR, built for precision, reliability, and compact handling. It features a 16.1‑inch cold hammer‑forged alloy steel barrel with a 1:9 twist rate and a satin blued finish, providing consistent rifling and long‑term durability. The barrel is threaded 1/2 x 28 and fitted with a thread cap, allowing compatibility with common rimfire muzzle devices while maintaining a clean profile when not in use. Feeding is handled by a detachable, flush‑mounted 9‑round JMX‑1 rotary magazine, with additional compatibility for BX‑15 Magnum magazines. The satin blued alloy steel receiver incorporates a factory‑installed one‑piece Picatinny rail for direct optics mounting, while a 60‑degree bolt throw delivers smooth operation and ample scope clearance. A receiver‑mounted bolt release allows the bolt to be removed without pulling the trigger.

The rifle is housed in a lightweight synthetic stock finished in black, combining modern forend contouring and grip serrations with a traditional profile for secure handling. A high comb pad and 13.75‑inch length of pull promote consistent cheek weld when using optics, and the interchangeable stock module system allows quick adjustment by removing the rear sling swivel stud. Accuracy is enhanced by the integral Power Bedding system, which positively locates the receiver and free‑floats the barrel, along with a Ruger Adjustable Marksman trigger offering a crisp release with a pull weight adjustable from three to five pounds. Additional features include a tang‑mounted safety, an extended magazine release for smooth removal of the flush‑mounted magazine, and sling swivel studs. The rifle measures 35 inches in overall length, weighs 5.3 pounds, and is well suited for hunting, target shooting, and precision rimfire applications.
