The KMK-512 designation identifies this as the stainless 5.5-inch bull-barrel Target model. The barrel/receiver assembly is the serialized component, and the right-side receiver rollmark reads "RUGER .22 CAL. LONG RIFLE MARK II TARGET." Production is confirmed for 1986 per Ruger’s serial table.
The sighting setup is purpose-built for precision, with a fully adjustable target rear sight and a screw-retained fixed front blade on a ramp. The heavy bull barrel is fixed to the receiver, contributing to stability and consistent alignment.
Controls follow the classic Mark II layout, including a heel-type magazine release and a manual thumb safety. The action is a semi-automatic blowback system with an automatic last-round bolt hold-open, and the design omits a magazine disconnect. Capacity is 10+1 rounds of .22 LR.
This example includes non-factory wraparound finger-groove black rubber grips that are installed. The brushed stainless finish is carried across the frame and receiver for a uniform look and durable surface.
