Ruger American Ranch

[slowthorp]

Question - is the picatinny rail on the American Ranch non-standard? I'm trying to mount a Bushnell AR 4.5-18 with a Burris PEPR mount to the gun, but the slots on the rail don't match up to the scope mount. :?: :?:

I don't know, but I do know such a mismatch is usually because one of the items (either rail or mount) is Weaver, while the other is Picatinny. Generally, Weaver will fit Picatinny but not vice versa.

It is not a picatinny rail. If you look closely at the base, you will find that the spacing varies between the slots. Of course after market picatinny bases for the ruger ranch rifle are available. Be prepared to pay 30 to 60 $ for an aluminum picatinny base, or 100 $ for a warne steel picatinny base.

I seem to remember a post about this with a good explanation ?

I used separate Picatinny rings on mine and they fit fine...not sure what spacing your rings have...
