FAQ
Is the BX Trigger adjustable?
No, the BX Trigger is not user-adjustable. It comes pre-set from Ruger with a pull weight between 2.5 and 3.0 pounds. If you want adjustability, you’d need an aftermarket trigger like a Timney or Geissele.
Does this rifle come with scope mounts?

Can I use high-velocity .22 LR ammo?
Yes, this rifle handles standard and high-velocity .22 LR rounds without issue. Stick to quality ammo for best accuracy.
Is the stock real walnut?
Yes, it’s American walnut with a high-gloss lacquer finish. The engraving on the receiver is laser-etched, not hand-engraved, but it’s still a premium look.
How many rounds does the magazine hold?
