RE: Any ruger guy's out there????
Oil,
Not sure what caliber you bought, but I picked up a used 22-250 in excellent condition and it is a very accurate rifle.I topped it with a Leupold 6-18 VXII with fine crosshairs and am quite pleased with the scope. It likes every load that I've put through it from cheap remington 40 grain factory loads to my own handloads. I'm usually running about 0.6" groups at 100 yds and often turn out sub 1" groups at 200 yds. The double stage trigger took some getting used to and I've touched off a few rounds a little earlier than I planned. So far I've only shot it off the bench, so I don't have any field experience. Rugers fit me the best of any gun I've tried so far. I've got a couple 10/22's, a VT, a MarkII .270 and a 77/22mag. I really enjoy them all. I'm sure you got yourself a great shooter, and as long as you don't need to carry it too far you will be pleased. I only wished I had bought another one in .243 instead of my remington model 7.
