Ruger Announces New Products for 2013

Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. (NYSE: RGR) is introducing the following new products and extensions of popular existing lines for 2013.
 
Ruger® Guide Gun with Ruger® Muzzle Brake System:
The new Ruger® Guide Gun combines features from several of Ruger's most popular rifles to produce a high performance, feature-rich hunting rifle that is ready for whatever conditions and game come your way. The new bolt-action rifle is available in .30-06 Sprg., .300 Win. Mag., .338 Win. Mag., .300 RCM, .338 RCM, .375 Ruger and .375 Ruger in a left-handed configuration.
 
The Ruger® Guide Gun incorporates the new and revolutionary Ruger® Muzzle Brake System, a removable, radial-port muzzle brake that significantly reduces felt recoil. When the brake is not preferred, it may be replaced by the dynamically-matched muzzle weight, provided as part of the Ruger® Muzzle Brake System. Switching between the brake and the weight will not change the bullet's point of impact. The included thread protector may be used if neither the brake nor the weight is desired.

Mag., .338 Win. Mag., .375 Ruger, .416 Ruger and .375 Ruger in a left-handed configuration.
