Just wondering if the Nodak spud ghost ring sights for the Ruger American ranch 223 would also fit the Ruger american predator 223.

Yes they will just farther down the barrel around the 18” mark is where they sit snug.
Ranch barrel is the exact match in contour to the predator all the way up to the 16.5”-18” mark.
 
Sadly I believe they are still unavailable at the moment??
They were bought out by a bigger company and arent currently in production ??

Shame....theres demand.

Bigger shame is Ruger doesnt incorporate iron sites on the Ranch series....it was the only feature they didnt migrate ov er from the semi Ranches and a glaring ommision.
Ruger could do quality (winged steel solidly built adj peeps) iron sites at manufacture far less expensively than aftermarket approaches and build them in to the design seemlessly.
They would only need to raise their price point a small amount...that consumers would gladly pay
Rifle would dominate its market with this addition IMO
 
Yes wouldn’t it just make sense for these to come with the Ruger peep sights right from the factory, like the Mini’s and the scout rifles. Thanks for the replies everyone. Sounds like a pointless effort to try to make this set up work.

Don’t give up just yet. Nodak was bought out/absorbed by palmetto’s state armoury. PSA is aware of the demand and has stated they will do a production run at some point.
 
I think I’m a little turned off about having to attach the front sight part way down the barrel if it goes on the predator. Might look a little goofy
 
I doubt it would take much to shim it to fit where you want it.... pair of scissors and an empty aluminum beverage can of your choice and a bit of trial and error.
 
Anyone out there ever successfully done this? Mounting the Nodak sights to a predator and shimming the front sight?
