Ruger Scout 6803 .308 Win 16.1" Threaded Barrel Black Laminate

The Ruger Scout 6803 delivers versatile precision in a compact .308 Winchester platform designed for rapid target acquisition and adaptable mounting options. This rifle combines the proven Ruger American action with scout rifle ergonomics for enhanced field performance.

What Makes This Different

The forward-mounted Picatinny rail allows for scout scope mounting, keeping optics ahead of the action for faster target acquisition and improved field of view. The 16.1-inch threaded barrel provides maneuverability advantages over traditional hunting rifles while maintaining .308 Winchester ballistic performance. Black laminate stock construction offers superior weather resistance compared to standard hardwood alternatives.

Key Features

• 10+1 capacity with detachable rotary magazine system
• 16.1-inch cold hammer-forged barrel with 5/8"-24 threading for suppressors
• Forward-mounted Picatinny rail for scout scope configuration
• Black laminate fixed stock with 13.75-inch length of pull
• Matte black steel receiver with integral scope mount bases
• Ruger Marksman Adjustable trigger with 3-5 pound pull weight

Field testing demonstrates consistent sub-2 MOA accuracy with quality ammunition, making this rifle suitable for hunting applications from 50 to 300 yards. The shorter barrel configuration excels in dense cover hunting and tactical applications where maneuverability matters. Weather-sealed action components maintain reliability in adverse conditions, while the threaded barrel accepts standard .308 suppressors and muzzle devices.
