Making a new elk rifle there are ya???
Elk rifle, nope. I would love to go elk hunting, but I don't see that happening.
I am going to go pick it up in the morning and take it to the range. He has 50 rounds loaded up, and is going to let me "test drive" it. So, I will get a better idea of if it is something I want. The only Ruger's I have owned have been number 1's. So, I don't even know about their bolt guns. As far as the cartridge goes, I don't mind reloading for it, if it is worth the trouble. I didn't know if anyone had any personal experience with it, or had any info. This gun was bought new in 1993 or 1994 and has had less than 500 rounds put through it. And it looks to be in 100% condition. Thanks for any info
