I read the OP and have to ask why in Haydes you purchased that rifle in the first place when you didn't like so many features the way you dissed it! Did you not handle it before hand and try it out as much as possible in the store before you bought it? It doesn't sound like it and if you bought it sight unseen like it sounds, then IMHO you should have and you probably wouldn't have made the purchase. If you did and still bought it, then again IMHO it was your mistake for buying an economical rifle like the Ruger American is and expecting to get a Tikka or Sako for that little bit of money that Ruger wants for it.
