These guy's are in really high demand in my area and for very good reasons I have found out. I just have picked this one up, threw a cheap closet scope on it and seen what all the hype was about. I actually didn't plan on finding one to be honest. None of the gun stores have any in stock and they all advise that it could be a month or so before they could get any in. I just happened to find this one on Armslist and I jumped on it.
This is by far the heaviest .22 rifle that I own, weighing in at 6.8 pounds totally naked. The heavy 18" target barrel and 15" free floating handguard has a lot to do with that I imagine. Ruger really knocked this one out of the park, guys. After the first group, I was in love!
THIS IS 5 SHOTS GUYS
I didn't use my range finder and I wasn't actually that far away, maybe 25 yards. But still at 25 yards, that is pretty damn impressive to put 5 shots in 3 holes with a POS scope. I will be replacing the glass as soon as possible. This thing came off of a gun that someone traded me a while back and I took it off and literally put it in the closet along with the rest of my other spare gun parts and unused holsters and such. It actually hurt me to put this optic on this nice piece of precision equipment but oh well, it's only temporary baby.
Here's another nice group I shot later in the day at a longer distance. Keep in mind that my buddy and I were getting, let's just say "tired" and were about ready to call it quits for the day. This was 10 shots at 50 yards.
You can adjust just about everything you can possibly want to on this rifle. You can adjust the bolt throw for crying out loud in case you wanted to have the feel of a large caliber throw or in case you were worried about short stroking in a competition maybe.
You can adjust the trigger easily. I will make a separate post on that.
The stock can be adjusted to fit the people with the tightest of anal rings out there!
Cheek riser moves up and down considerably.
Everything also moves forwards and backwards considerably.
Even the butt pad can be adjusted up and down.
Standard 10/22 mags will work in her too!
I'm just getting started with this thing so stay tuned! I'll be replacing the glass and putting a suppressor on it soon, so feel free to follow along with me on this Steemit journey! @bluelightbandit
