Looks neat if real. Was posted on Arys Daniela's facebook an hour ago. Hell, I'll consider one in 6.5 Creedmoor.
Arys Daniela Be the first to know...I got a memo that releasing later today, @RugersOfficial Precision Rifle featuring a @SamsonMfgPro Evo rail! Don't know a date for retailers to have these in stock yet, but check back and maybe @rtsponline will have them in stock! Looks like it'll take regular AR rail systems, along with different mags for variety. 
Edit: Hat tip to KPrice a little further down with a link. MSRP $1399 The rifle’s barrel is cold hammer-forged 4140 chrome/moly steel with 5R Rifling. According to Gurney, 5R places a land opposite each of the barrel’s grooves, resulting in less aggressive upset and distortion of the bullet as it engages the rifling, thereby aiding in accuracy. The 5R design also features less sharp-edged lands than those present in conventional-style rifling, reducing powder fouling and jacket failures in quick-twist barrels. The company further optimized the Precision Rifle’s accuracy by utilizing the tightest possible chamber and groove tolerances—also taking extra care to ensure a centralized chamber and minimal headspace. Rigidly affixed to the rifle’s receiver via a barrel nut, the gun’s barrel can be easily replaced by a competent gunsmith using a barrel wrench and headspace gauges. All Precision Rifle barrels are medium-contour (0.75" at the muzzle) and are free-floated within their fore-ends. Twist rates were selected by Ruger to ensure the rifles could stabilize the longer bullets within each chambering that are most popular with long-range shooters. The barrels are threaded at the muzzle (5/8x24 thread pattern) to facilitate the use of compensators or suppressors, and come with a thread protector. A 20-m.o.a. canted Picatinny rail is secured to the top of the receiver by four screws, allowing for increased long-range elevation adjustments with the gun.

Sounds like Ruger is trying to build up some expertise in the "really really accurate" rifle arena. Good for them.

Call me when it's chambered in .338 Lapua, at 15 lbs, I'm thinking it's not going to be any better, overall, than my 18" Sig716

I'm actually kind of impressed with the whole M100, SR25, and AICS compatibility though. Must have been a pain to design the locking system IF it works. Wouldn't mind seeing a smaller version in .223, 300 aac, x39, and some other Pmag compatable calibers as well. |

Interdasting
If the trigger is decent and street price is under $1000, I might be interested in one of these ETA: it looks like it may be able to use AR15 handguards? ETA 2: Yes it can! "May be configured with any AR-style handguard." |

I'm guessing the trigger sucks like every Ruger product.....nothing a competent gunsmith can't fix though.
.243 would work.

Since Bill assumed room temperature, a lot of the stupid Ruger is known for seems to have assumed room temperature as well. Competition and making capital will do that. |
