The Ruger American Predator Gen II in .350 Legend is a bolt-action rifle with a 22-inch cold hammer-forged threaded barrel with a factory-installed radial port muzzle brake. The green splatter stock and burnt bronze Cerakote receiver give it the two-tone appearance found across the Predator Gen II line in this combination. At 6.5 lbs with a 5+1 capacity, it's aimed at hunters in straight-wall cartridge states who want more reach from a .350 Legend configuration than the shorter Ranch Gen II barrel provides.

Detailed Features 

The 22-inch barrel is cold hammer-forged and threaded with a muzzle brake. Compared to the 16.4-inch Ranch variant, the longer barrel retains more velocity with .350 Legend loads, which is relevant for hunters pushing the cartridge to its effective range limits. 
 
The Ruger Marksman Adjustable trigger adjusts from 3 to 5 lbs. Length of pull adjusts from 12 to 13.75 inches by removing a stock spacer. The Power Bedding system free-floats the barrel. The three-position tang safety allows bolt cycling with the safety engaged. A Picatinny scope base is pre-installed. 
 

Usage Scenarios 

• Deer hunting in straight-wall cartridge states where the 22-inch barrel gives .350 Legend a velocity advantage over the shorter Ranch configuration. 
• Field carry situations where the 6.5-lb weight is manageable for extended hunts. 
• Target shooting and practice where the adjustable trigger and free-floated barrel support consistent performance.

Owners of the Ruger American Predator Gen II in .350 Legend are generally satisfied, with the caliber choice and the longer barrel configuration being the primary reasons for buying this version over the Ranch Gen II. Hunters who specifically want the 22-inch barrel for better velocity retention report positive results on deer at moderate distances.

The green/bronze two-tone finish draws the usual split opinion. Buyers who wanted the look tend to like it, others are neutral and chose it for availability. The Cerakote finish holds up in field conditions.

The adjustable trigger and free-floated barrel combination get consistent positive marks. At 6.5 lbs, the rifle is comfortable for carry, and most hunters report it balances well with a compact scope.

The trigger pull at the factory setting comes up occasionally as needing adjustment before it feels optimal. Some users note the muzzle brake adds noticeable blast, particularly in enclosed shooting positions, which is a known trade-off with shorter cartridges in muzzle-braked configurations.
