Title says Ranch Rifle which is a Mini14 design.I thought RAR stood for Ruger American Rifle
There are two rifles that go by that name, the Mini design and a no-frills bolt gun built on the Ruger American action.Title says Ranch Rifle which is a Mini14 design.

What next a Semi Auto Blackhawk???You're right - my personal assumption was that the OP was referring to the bolt gun, because there have been multiple threads (IIRC) about people changing barrels on those.
...A new barrel 5R rifling 1:8 twist-match for a RUGER AMERICAN RANCH bolt action rifle (RAR) in 5.56mm is $320-750 (depends on brand)...
...I can't find a 20-24" Wylde match chamber bolt action rifle for under oh lets say $1200
I love the Ruger American platform, light/darn near precision with some mods and modified it to my desired performance.Are you going to gain anything over just finding a suitable action and barrel to start the 'build' with? Beginning a project with a 'price point' rifle just to harvest the action is questionable. I've tried that when parts and machine work were far less costly and found it often cost more than other options.
