RUGER 56901 AMERICAN II PRAIRIE 7MM PRC 24" SPIRAL FLUTED THREADED

The Ruger American Rifle Generation II Prairie (56901) is a bolt-action centerfire rifle chambered in 7mm PRC, built for long-range hunters, open-country shooters, and precision-focused buyers who want a factory-accurate, suppressor-ready bolt gun with a Smoked Bronze Cerakote barreled action and a purpose-built bull contour barrel in a hunting-weight package. This 7mm PRC bolt-action long-range hunting rifle for elk, mule deer, and open-country big game delivers a 24-inch spiral fluted cold hammer-forged barrel, an adjustable trigger, and a fully bedded action in a weather-resistant platform built to perform from the bench and in the field.

Special Features

• The bull contour barrel profile adds cross-sectional mass compared to a standard hunting contour, stiffening the barrel against harmonics during the shot and extending the time before heat-related accuracy degradation during multi-shot field and range sessions
• Shallow spiral fluting runs the length of the barrel to increase surface area for faster heat dissipation while removing material to keep the overall rifle weight at 7 pounds, a balance that delivers target-grade barrel geometry without the carry penalty of a full bull barrel
• The Power Bedding system uses V-shaped integral aluminum bedding blocks to positively locate the receiver and free-float the entire barrel, establishing a consistent, repeatable accuracy platform that factory rifles at significantly higher price points often require aftermarket bedding work to achieve
• The Smoked Bronze Cerakote finish is applied to the full barreled action including the receiver, barrel, and bolt body, providing a corrosion-resistant, abrasion-resistant surface that matches the bronze splatter stock pattern for a visually unified field rifle
• The three-position tang safety uses a stainless steel locking bolt to positively lock the firing pin in the safe position while still allowing the bolt to cycle for safe unloading, giving the hunter full control over chamber status during a stalk or pack-in without decocking the action
• The oversized bolt handle is threaded at 5/16x24 to accept aftermarket bolt knob upgrades, allowing the shooter to install a larger or differently shaped knob without machining or welding
• The 1:8 inch twist rate stabilizes the full range of 7mm PRC projectile weights from 150 grains through 180 grains, giving the shooter access to every factory hunting and match load the cartridge supports without twist-rate limitations

Practical Benefits

• The 7mm PRC cartridge drives heavy, high-BC projectiles at velocities that maintain supersonic flight and deliver significant downrange energy on elk and mule deer well beyond the distances most hunters encounter in open-country field conditions
• The 5/8x24 threaded muzzle accepts the full range of hunting suppressors and muzzle brakes built to this standard thread pattern, making this rifle directly ready for suppressed use without any modification to the barrel
• The factory Picatinny rail accepts any standard ring system for mounting a long-range hunting or precision optic, and the 70-degree bolt throw provides generous scope clearance for large-objective optics without requiring high rings that raise the cheek weld
• The Ruger Marksman Adjustable trigger lets you set pull weight between 3 and 5 pounds without tools, allowing a lighter setting for careful long-range field shots and a heavier setting for fast-moving hunting situations where accidental discharge is a concern
• Whether you are building a dedicated open-country elk rifle, hunting high-country mule deer at extended range, or running a suppressed long-range bolt gun that performs at the distances modern hunting cartridges are designed for, your Ruger American Gen II Prairie gives you factory accuracy, a premium Cerakote finish, and a cartridge purpose-built for the work

The Ruger American Rifle Generation II Prairie (56901) in 7mm PRC is a capable tool for the long-range hunter and precision-minded shooter who wants a cold hammer-forged, Cerakote-finished bolt gun with suppressor-ready threading and sub-MOA potential built in from the factory.
