Frequently Asked Questions
Ruger Scout 308 for sale

How much is a Ruger Scout 308 rifle?

Ruger Scout rifles in .308 Win typically sell for around $1,099, with new prices ranging from approximately $929 to $1,291 depending on the variant. Used examples run roughly $990 to $1,104. Five variants are available from multiple retailers.

Is the Ruger Scout a good rifle?

Whether it's good depends on your needs. The Ruger Scout is a reliable, accurate, compact .308 carbine suited for hunting and general use. It handles multiple roles competently but isn't optimized for any single purpose. If you want a versatile, durable rifle, it's a strong choice.

Did Ruger discontinue the Gunsite Scout?

Yes, Ruger discontinued the M77-based Gunsite Scout Rifle. It has been pulled from Ruger's website and is being replaced by the Ruger American Gen II Scout rifle. Check our marketplace for remaining inventory, and visit Ruger's website for details on the new Gen II Scout.

What is the best ammo for the Ruger Scout 308?

For hunting or general use, 168-grain Federal Gold Medal Match or Hornady 168-grain ELD Match are reliable choices. The Ruger Scout typically shoots 168–175-grain match-grade loads most accurately. Lighter 150-grain loads work for hunting but may group less consistently. Test several brands to find what your specific rifle prefers.

What magazine does the Ruger Gunsite Scout 308 use?

The Ruger Gunsite Scout in .308 Winchester uses proprietary Ruger polymer magazines made from glass-filled nylon, available in 3, 5, and 10-round capacities. It also accepts M14/M1A-pattern steel magazines.
