IMO it all depends on the role of the rifle . If you are getting a range toy or hunting stick to poke at pasture poodles or shoot a hog in the butt once in a while then the PSA level rifle makes a whole lot of sense and I confess to having a couple . However If you want a rifle for duty or...

I like the loopy a bit better for my ar and the way i use it . I went with the 1.25x4 Hog model as a hunting/defense friendly reticle .

In your letter offer to buy him a cup of coffee or drink or meal and discuss the possibility of hunting his land in person . Include your phone number for him to contact you should he choose . He may or may not call but you extended a friendly hand with the offer of a drink or meal to...

IMO .. If you are not finding guns priced where you want them to be then your idea of " reasonable " might just be skewed a bit . There have always been outlier high prices and low prices in the gun market . However when " everything " is priced to high to suit you then it most likely isn't...

Talking about a bit more money than that for even an entry level one , but were i to " invest " in a firearm today just for the gain in value it would be a NFA item specifically a machinegun . Since they closed the registry in 86 iirc the prices have skyrocketed .

I prefer the term " affordable firearms " Junk just sounds so prejudicial LOL .

Glad it met your expectations .

The last guys on my place from Missouri did a bit over a thousand rounds each in two days shooting . I don't know where in Eastern Colorado your hunting and the dog population is spotty depending on exact area but thats somewhat a benchmark of whats possible . Edited to correct to Eastern CO...

Well Dave I guess we have a bit different opinion of what an average shooter is capable of . Its all good . Gentlemen and form users can occasionally disagree on many subjects LOL

Covelo . Sounds like you have a * real * Sheriff out there .. someone to be cherished by the entire community . And another Congrats on the Sobriety along with best wishes for your new rifle .

Peak Glad i could help . I think it will make a fine little rifle as long as a person remembers it is what it is .. and entry or budget level rifle that may well not be all that refined as far as finish goes .

I have no interest in the Ruger American either , however I can sure see it for the budget limited folks or in a limited use role . The op was in part about the accuracy of the platform and that I could speak to at least from one completely stock sample. The rifle didn't interest me enough to...

A few weeks ago a fella who is writing an article that is to be out this fall brought one to my ranch range . His premise was to make a 1,000 yard rifle for $1,000 . He shot a sub moa group with hornady factory ammo at 1,000 yards . Factory ammo , Stock rifle , in fact had never had a round...

I saw the .17 hornet on dogs for the first time last weekend , It may well be the best all around dog caliber i have seen .

The 17 hmr is a great pdog caliber until the wind gets up or you get out past 300 or so for the average shooter i see . Last weekend a fella brought a .17 hornet out to shoot my dogs ... I was real impressed with it .

In my state its not legal for big game , but is for coyote and i have experience with them so that is what i had to vote . I just cant vote for anything larger without any experiance as to how well it might or might not work .

Well said , and most of the " Stealing from the people " folks who whine are the same crowd that seem to feel its ok to hunt my property without so much as an attempt to find out who it belongs to and get permission . They sure dont stick around after they shot one of my horses or tractors...

Yes , it will fit if and when Ruger decides to sell the new stock as a stand alone item .

blindhari No apology needed here .

blindhari I shoot my own dogs to speak , but i can truly understand someone calling in help when they start packing up and you got a place to run as well as resolve the dog problem . yes it in unpleasant to shoot a dog , it is also unpleasant to put down stock they have chewed up . I have...
