The principle of the rifle
TheRuger Hawkeye Long Range Target is a classic repeating rifle, based on a slide-turn (4-barrel) lock. Locking is carried out through symmetrically located bolts, corresponding to the locking resistance in the barrel extension. Such a system is simple and reliable, in addition to being easy to clean and maintain. It also ensures high firing accuracy and withstands various pressures of the ammunition used. The lock has a non-rotating extractor claw.
