Davidson’s Gallery of Guns’ Ruger Precision Rifle
Last updated: June 27, 2026 · Originally published: June 20, 2019
The Ruger Precision Rifle (RPR) is Ruger’s benchmark bolt-action long-range rifle, and through Davidson’s Gallery of Guns it ships backed by the Davidson’s GuaranteeD® Lifetime Replacement Warranty — including an exclusive Davidson’s Dark Earth finish. Street prices generally run from about $1,300 to $1,900 depending on caliber and configuration. Here are the calibers, specs, and what makes the Davidson’s version different.
Ruger Precision Rifle: Calibers & Key Specs
| Caliber | Best For |
|---|---|
| 6.5 Creedmoor | Flagship long-range / PRS competition |
| 6mm Creedmoor | Competition, flatter trajectory, low recoil |
| .308 Winchester | Affordable, versatile practice and hunting |
| 6.5 PRC | Magnum-class long range |
| .300 PRC / .300 Win Mag | Extreme long range and big-game hunting |
| .338 Lapua Magnum | Maximum-range RPR Magnum platform |
Across every chambering the RPR shares the same core: a cold hammer-forged 4140 chrome-moly barrel with 5R rifling, an AR-style adjustable folding stock, an AR-compatible pistol grip, AICS-pattern detachable magazines, a free-float M-LOK handguard, and a 20-MOA Picatinny rail for long-range optics. Pair it with a quality scope from our scopes & optics coverage, or see more rifles in our guns & ammo section.
When two names like Ruger and Davidson’s Gallery of Guns get together, good things happen.
When firearms powerhouse Ruger announced the debut of their precision rifle, the gun-buying public went absolutely gaga. Combining the tried-and-true bolt-action with the cool-and-modular AR-15 resulted in a rifle capable of reaching out to 1,000 yards and beyond, but what really got people excited was the price tag: $1399. Most precision rifles are considerably more expensive than that, because they tend to include some hand-tuning. The RPR’s (relatively) low price made some consumers wonder if the gun’s performance could actually live up to the hype. That question has, obviously, been answered with a resounding “yes.” “The Ruger Precision Rifle is one of the world’s best for too many reasons to count,” says one recent review. This gun is an absolute tack-driver, regularly producing groups of .6 MOA at 100 yards. It’s endlessly customizable, but the shooter doesn’t have to customize or install aftermarket parts if they don’t wish to–the rifle arrives from the factory ready to go. If you’re not familiar with the way gun pricing works, the MSRP (Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price) almost always winds up being a bit higher than what the consumer can expect to pay in a gun store…after all, it’s to be expected that local retailers will try to give their customers the best price they can while still turning a profit. But the Ruger Precision Rifle bucked–and continues to buck–that trend. Most dealers quickly discovered that these rifles would fly off the shelves regardless of the fine points of pricing. Another point of difference from the way most guns sell: The RPR’s MSRP went up, not down, as the rifle grew in popularity and Ruger fine-tuned and engineered the RPR to respond to customer feedback. The result was that, depending on where they lived, consumers saw pricing that wasn’t very consistent from store to store. That’s where trusted online retailer Davidson’s Gallery of Guns really shines. With over 50 years in the business and Davidson’s GuaranteeD® Lifetime Replacement Warranty, which backs all of the firearms you buy through GalleryofGuns.com, it’s a terrific place to purchase your RPR with the confidence that you’re getting a fair price. Although thus far the Ruger Precision Rifle is displaying the hardiness consumers expect from Ruger, it’s always nice to know that if anything ever goes wrong with any gun you buy with the Davidson’s GuaranteeD® Lifetime Replacement Warranty, it will be replaced. If no replacement is available, it will be repaired at no charge to you. Plus, Davidson’s has an exclusive version of the RPR featuring Davidson’s proprietary Dark Earth coating.
