The polymer stock is designed to promote easy handling, while the forend features grip serrations for better handling. The stock also features a rubber buttpad for recoil reduction. Recoil reduction is also provided by the Ruger muzzle brake, which comes on a barrel with a 11/16x24 TPI thread pitch. The magazine capacity is three rounds, and the suggested retail price is $599.
