After a couple months of work identifying and installing performance-enhancing components, the bargain bolt-action rifle is ready for the range and woods. Starting with a Ruger American Predator rifle in 6.5 mm Creedmoor, this accurate field gun now boasts a Boyd’s stock, bedded with Brownells Acraglass, a Nikon Monarch 3 4-16X 42 mm riflescope and a Rhodesian sling from Andy’s Leather.
