Ruger American Predator Hunting Rifle 6.5 Creedmoor ~ THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE ACCURATE!!
Ruger American Predator Hunting Rifle 6.5 Creedmoor ~ THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE ACCURATE!!
This budget 6.5 CREEDMOOR chambered hunting rifle shoots as well or better than some rifles that cost twice as much. It does have some things that limit it’s performance out of the box but somehow it overcomes them!

Best rifle I own. Accurate deer killing machine. Recently put my new pulsar on it for coyote hunting. Shot a coyote in the back of head at 150 yards running away.
Really good non-biased review. Excellent shooting as well!
From what I have been hearing, the 6.5 creedmoor is a great whitetail deer gun. If I am wrong please correct 🙂
Great video
most rifles are coming without iron sites now
Well I am taking a long range shooting class so it looks like this is what I’m getting for that.
Magpul makes an aftermarket that is fantastic! I’ve got that one on my 6.5 CM.
The bolt sitting on the wet table makes me cringe a bit 😉
I love your no BS commentary
That was amazing
That was the absolute best rifle review I have ever seen. Color me impressed.
re your 100 yd shots. Are you aiming dead on to the center or are you compensating for trajectory? My M77 rises up at 100 to 150 and then drops to level at 300 which I think is normal. I have to aim low at those ranges. Maybe you could comment on how it is sighted?
How are they chamberd in 223
Great shooting
Nice video Ky boy. From all the shooters out there Thanks for the 5 shot group and the good info
Great video 👍🏼 thanks.
I bought one in .204 – hopefully it shoots this well!
I like the arrows on the end
any suggestions for where to shop for this "package" gun with vortex scope?
Excellent! Love your vids!
The rifle is still shooting great, but the magazine broke. It’s plastic and broke at the spring release. Ruger sent me a replacement and I ordered a second mag. The "universal" mags fit the 6.5 and the 308. The top two rounds will not feed correctly. They stand up as they slide off the mag. I purchased another one online and it’s also a combo mag. Again, the top two rounds will not chamber. They do not sell a factory replacement mag that comes with the rifle.
I gave 474 for mine without a scope, topped it off with a leupold scope
Bro your intro is way too long… get to the good stuff
Can somebody please tell me a good stock option to put on it I just bought one and I don’t like how he was able to pull that apart
Cheap factory stock, BUT We put that hammer forged barrel together pretty good over here in Carolina, Don’t We ?♥️🔥
Hands down cant beat them,,, theres tons of vids here on YT, Standard, Predator, Ranch models etc… and they all seem to be tack drivers!!! I have the Ranch in 5.56, its shorter than a 10/22, great varmint truck gun… and it drives tacks…
20:38 I hope you’ve got a tag for that pillbug.
I have one of these it will shoot1/2 inch groups at 100 with the right ammo if u can hold it
The factory stock is no bueno…
Man that intro was wayyy too long.
Sr. I’ve watched your video maybe 7-8 times on the Ruger predator…
You’re a really fine shot.
I have the same rifle three round clip…
I want to shoot 10 rounds out of hot moms are distances up 1000k.
Later predators have a clip feed that holds 10 rounds.
Is there a way that I can modify my stock to hold 10 round clips instead of the three round clip.
If you know what I have to do to have a 10-round magazine and a 6.5.
I watch all of your videos…
Thanks.

That’s about right for accuracy now try some Hornandy 147gr match will be almost same hole accuracy
Love the way you talk about stuff somewhat in depth as if someone might not know what everything is instead of just glossing over stuff like everyone knows what you’re talking about
If 6.5 Creedmoor was easier to find here in Canada I would like my Ruger American Predator 6.5 crdmr more than my Tikka 3tx varmint 308
Great video work, great review! Thank you!
Music sucks!
Your assessment is as accurate as the rifle. Not much to look at, but it’s a sweet shooter.
Sir: I am 81 & have carried a rifle since I was 7. I am NOT a firearms expert by any means, & have never owned a top of the line rifle. I very much enjoyed your review, & especially your honest, unbiased , observations. Your shooting review was excellent. Thank you !
Holy cow, that 3rd shot you took, that landed in the same hole from your 2nd was out standing. Damn good marksmanship!
Townsend Whelen said it. Only accurate rifles are interesting.
That’s to bad you don’t much care for it ! I love to shot mine but I have the nickel barrel . The caliber is fantastic the rifle shoots straight and I have a caliber specific scope on it ! Dead nuts at 300 for me !
Niiiiice!
some would say that the glass makes the rifle…..
"The Boawwwt" This dude is awesome..
I’ve got a Magpul Hunter stock on mine. Makes a HUGE difference.
Price gone up on these? 450 without scope is what I’m seeing
I just got to shoot this weapon this weekend and loved it and I want one now….
Why do you people shoot a 50 yds?,
WTF
Just bought mine today, waiting that good ole’ California 10 days, i wanted something to slap steel past 500 yards and this is what i picked up for $560 in 6.5
Are they upgradeable??
I have a Ruger American in .243 and a Predator in 6.5 Creedmoor. They both shoot like that. Best deal in rifles today.
