Ruger Hawkeye Compact 308 Win 16.5" 4+1 Bolt-Action Rifle - Matte Stainless

The Ruger Hawkeye Compact is a purpose-built bolt-action rifle chambered in .308 Winchester and engineered for hunters and shooters who want a shorter, lighter, more maneuverable rifle without giving up the rugged all-weather performance the line is known for. Offered in factory-New condition, this Compact variant pairs a 16.50" matte stainless steel barrel with a stainless steel receiver machined with Ruger's signature integral scope mount bases, so optics drop right on without separate bases for a tight, repeatable lockup.

At the heart of the action is a proven bolt with a three-position safety that allows the shooter to safely unload the rifle with the bolt locked open. The crisp, user-adjustable LC6 trigger ships from the factory with a clean, predictable pull that helps hunters and target shooters alike extract every bit of accuracy the rifle is capable of. The steel barrel is cut to a 1:9.50" twist, well-suited to the wide range of .308 Win bullet weights from lighter varmint-style loads through heavy hunting projectiles.

The fixed laminate stock is finished in textured black with classic wrap-around checkering on the grip and forend for positive control in wet weather, with gloves, or under heavy recoil. Ruger's slim, rounded stock contours along the barrel channel, bottom of the stock, and top of the pistol grip keep the rifle comfortable to carry all day in the field. At 35.50" overall and weighing just 6 lbs, the Hawkeye Compact is short and light enough for dense cover, saddle scabbards, and timber hunting, while still delivering the .308 Win performance serious hunters expect.

Feeding is handled by a detachable 4-round rotary magazine for a 4+1 total capacity, and the rifle ships with no iron sights, set up for scope use right out of the box via Ruger's integral mounts. Whether the mission is mid-sized whitetail and black bear hunting in the timber, a compact backcountry rifle for sheep or goat country, or a precision-friendly .308 trainer for the range, the Hawkeye Compact is built to perform.
