The Gen 3 also comes with a muzzle brake, featuring a hybrid port design that reduces recoil by up to 40\u201360%, and reduces muzzle blast, directing it to each side of the shooter&#8217;s line of sight. A billet-aluminum bolt shroud also enhances the Gen 3 rifle. The upper receiver and one-piece bolt are precision CNC-machined from pre-hardened 4140 chrome-moly steel to minimize distortion; and a 20-MOA Picatinny rail is secured to the receiver with 4 #8-40 screws. The bolt has 3 lock lugs, resulting in superior strength and a 70\u00ba throw. The Precision MSR buttstock attaches to an AR-style buffer tube on a left-folding hinge, and the stock adjusts for length of pull and comb height. The buttstock features QD sling attachment points, a bottom Picatinny rail, and rubber buttpad. The buffer tube accepts any AR-style stock. An extended trigger-reach, AR-style grip, and a 45\u00ba reversible safety selector provide ease of operation, and the rifle is compatible with any AR-style grip or selector. The cold hammer-forged 4140 chrome-moly steel, medium-contour barrel has 5R rifling. The barrel nut enables close-tolerance headspacing, and a Marksman Adjustable&#x2122; trigger breaks clean to enhance accurate shooting. The Ruger Precision Rifle Gen 3 utilizes a multi-magazine interface that functions with AICS, polymer AR-10, and Gunsite Scout magazines. Includes two 10-round Magpul\u00ae PMAG\u00aemagazines.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul style=\"margin: 0px; color: #4d4d4d; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0px; letter-spacing: normal; font-family: 'Open Sans', arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; word-spacing: 0px; white-space: normal; box-sizing: border-box; orphans: 2; widows: 2; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;\">\n<li>For long-range, tactical shooting<\/li>\n<li>Short-action M-LOK\u00ae handguard<\/li>\n<li>Billet-aluminum bolt shroud<\/li>\n<li>Hybrid muzzle brake<\/li>\n<li>AR-style buffer tube on left-folding hinge<\/li>\n<li>Adjustable Precision MSR buttstock<\/li>\n<li>CNC-machined steel upper receiver<\/li>\n<li>Chrome-moly steel barrel<\/li>\n<li>3-lug bolt with 70\u00ba throw<\/li>\n<li>Multi-magazine interface<\/li>\n<li>Two 10-round magazines<\/li>\n<li>20-MOA receiver rail<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A further refined version of the hottest gun of the last five years&nbsp;in the hottest caliber of the last five years!
