Detailed Features 

The 22-inch barrel gives the 6.5 Creedmoor enough dwell time for consistent velocity without becoming unwieldy in a blind or on a long walk. The Vortex Crossfire II scope has a BDC reticle and is a solid utility optic at this price tier. The Ruger Marksman Adjustable trigger lets you dial pull weight to personal preference, which is useful since factory trigger feel varies between individual rifles. The synthetic stock sheds moisture and doesn't swell or warp in the field. 
 

Usage 

This package suits hunters who want a capable 6.5 Creedmoor setup and don't want to source a separate scope. It also works for precision rimfire or centerfire practice at intermediate ranges. The 4-round flush magazine keeps the profile clean in a scabbard or pack.

The Ruger American Vortex II in 6.5 Creedmoor generally lands well with users. Accuracy is the most-praised attribute. The 6.5 Creedmoor cartridge's flat trajectory and retained energy at distance make it well-suited for hunting and longer-range practice, and most owners report the rifle delivers on that. The adjustable trigger gets positive mentions from people who tuned it to a lighter pull.

Build quality feedback is solid. The rifle is described as light enough for extended carry but not so lightweight that it becomes unpleasant to shoot. The synthetic stock occasionally draws criticism for aesthetics or feel compared to wood alternatives, though nobody questions its durability.

The included Vortex Crossfire II scope is generally appreciated. Getting a scope in the box at this price point is a meaningful value. Some long-range shooters note it's adequate for hunting distances but you'll want better glass for serious precision work beyond 400-500 yards. A small number of users have noted feeding or ejection issues with specific ammunition, though this appears to be unit-specific rather than a pattern across the line.

Overall the rifle is recommended frequently as a starter bolt-action or as a capable field gun for hunters who don't need a bench-grade target rifle.
