Description
The .350 Legend has earned its spot as a favorite whitetail cartridge, and the Ruger American Gen II is one of the better homes for it. Ruger took the original American, a rifle that built its reputation on out-of-the-box accuracy, and gave it a real overhaul. The 20 inch medium contour barrel is cold hammer-forged with deep spiral fluting to trim weight, and it wears a tough Gun Metal Gray Cerakote finish that shrugs off wet mornings in the treestand. The muzzle is threaded 1/2×28 with a factory radial port brake installed, so you can run it as-is, swap in your favorite muzzle device, or spin on a suppressor. Pair a can with the already mild .350 Legend and you have one of the most pleasant deer rifles you will ever shoulder.
A Gen II Stock That Fits More Than One Hunter
The gray splatter synthetic stock is a big step up from the first generation. Spacers in the buttstock let you adjust length of pull from 12 to 13.75 inches, which is handy if the rifle gets passed between you and a younger hunter. The splatter texture gives solid grip without chewing up your hands, and the soft rubber recoil pad has a rounded heel that shoulders quickly and compresses to soak up what little kick this cartridge produces.
Gen II Action Built for Smooth Cycling
The bolt is CNC machined from stainless steel with the familiar three-lug design and short 70 degree throw, giving plenty of clearance under a mounted scope. An oversized bolt handle makes cycling easy with cold or gloved hands. The Ruger Marksman trigger is user adjustable so you can dial in a clean, crisp pull, and the three-position tang safety lets you cycle the action with the safety engaged.
Ready for Optics Out of the Box
There are no iron sights, but a one-piece Picatinny scope base comes factory installed, so mounting an optic takes minutes. Add in the flush-fitting 5-round AR-style detachable magazine, steel sling swivel studs, and a trim 6.4 pound weight, and this rifle is set up right for deer season from day one.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Ruger American Gen II .350 Legend suppressor ready?
Yes. The 20 inch barrel is threaded 1/2×28 and ships with a radial port muzzle brake installed. Just remove the brake and thread on any suppressor with a matching thread pitch. The soft-recoiling .350 Legend is a great cartridge to run suppressed.
Does this rifle come with sights or a scope?
It does not include iron sights or a scope, but Ruger installs a one-piece Picatinny rail at the factory. That means you can mount just about any scope or red dot with standard Picatinny rings and be sighted in quickly. Most buyers pair it with a 2-7x or 3-9x hunting scope.
Can you adjust the length of pull on the Gen II American stock?
Yes, the Gen II stock uses a spacer system that adjusts length of pull from 12 to 13.75 inches. Removing the installed spacer shortens it for smaller-framed or younger hunters, which makes this a great rifle to share around deer camp. The soft rubber recoil pad also compresses progressively to tame felt recoil even further.
What is the .350 Legend good for?
The .350 Legend is a straight-wall cartridge that has become hugely popular for whitetail deer and hog hunting inside about 200 yards. It hits well above its recoil level, kicking noticeably less than a .450 Bushmaster or most bottleneck deer cartridges. That mild recoil plus solid terminal performance makes it a smart pick for new hunters and seasoned ones alike.
