To qualify for consideration for a Golden Bullseye Award, a product must have been: • Recently introduced and widely available to consumers in 2005 • Used/tested by a staff member or regular contributor to the magazine • Reliable in the field, meeting or exceeding the evaluator’s expectations • Innovative in design and function • Readily perceived as a value to the purchaser • Styled in a manner befitting the firearm industry and, perhaps more importantly, its enthusiasts The awards were presented at an awards breakfast during the 2006 NRA Annual Meetings & Exhibits on May 19th in Milwaukee, WI. Accepting the award for the Ruger Mark III Hunter on behalf of the Company, Vice-President of Prescott Operations Robert R. Stutler said, “We designed this pistol to be practical, attractive, and innovative. With its high visibility sights, target- crowned fluted bull-barrel, and unique checkered cocobolo wood grips, it is a great choice for handgun hunters.” Executive Director of Sales & Marketing Randell Pence accepted on behalf of the Company for its Ruger M77 Mark II Frontier rifle. “This is a rifle that really has to be shot before you realize just how good it is,” said Pence. “It’s short, light, handy, and fast to shoot, with a forward-mounted scope mounted out on the barrel. We hope this major award continues to generate interest in this remarkable new product,” Pence concluded. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sturm, Ruger is the nation’s leading manufacturer of high-quality firearms for recreation and law enforcement, and a major producer of precision steel and titanium investment castings components for consumer industries.
