The Ruger 90561 Scout 5-round magazine is a precision rifle magazine built for shooters running the Ruger Precision Rifle or Gunsite Scout Rifle in .308 Winchester, 6.5 Creedmoor, .243 Winchester, or other .308-sized cartridges. If you're working with AR10-pattern bottom metal or AI-style chassis systems, this magazine delivers the compact capacity and reliable feeding you need for precision rifle work, hunting, or tactical rifle applications where a smaller footprint matters.
Built from 60% glass-filled polymer, this magazine combines durability with lightweight handling—the reinforced composite material stands up to field use without the weight penalty of all-steel designs. The stainless steel spring ensures consistent feeding across caliber variants and resists corrosion in harsh environments, whether you're shooting in damp conditions or storing the rifle between seasons. A dust cover keeps your rounds protected from dirt and debris during transport and in storage, which matters when you're running precision loads or match ammunition.
The AI-style profile means this magazine integrates seamlessly with many aftermarket bottom metal assemblies designed for AICS compatibility, giving you flexibility if you're building or upgrading a modular rifle system. Made in the USA with Ruger's quality control, it's available in black with the Ruger logo. At five rounds, this magazine is ideal for disciplined shooting—hunting, long-range practice, or tactical training where you're focused on accuracy over volume.
