Ruger has previously had pretty solid deals for NRA instructors. Be very interested to see if this shows up on the sheet..

9mm - because they don't make a 9.1mm
Im tempted to jump on a 6.5 CM model. Seems to have a lot of nice features and a nice entry level distance shooter.
Now you did it. I'm looking to dump my 308 stuff to get one of these in 243.
I know a guy that has one of these. Got it in late last week. His first impressions were extremely positive. Said the Acton was smooth and the AICS and PMags fit nicely in the mag well with the M1A mags being slightly more stubborn. Said the stock locks up very tight.
Shooting hornady 6.5 factory he was getting about .75 Moa out of it.
For the money it looks to be a real contender and a great bargain at a street price less than $1k.

Here's a pretty well written detailed article.
Quite a few YouTube videos too. The more I see/read about this rifle, the more I want one in 6.5 Creedmore. An appropriate optic will probably cost more than the rifle.
No discussions that I have seen on the 308...seems odd. Like to hear more if 308 is getting same accuracy as 6.5
With my age (51) and failing eyesight, I would just like to have a sub MOA Rifle that can consistently hit at 2-500 yards. I was not able to consistently get that accuracy with my 2 pervious Springfield MIA rifles. I do love the .308 Winchester, and do not need to hit a target at 1,300 yards. From the 3-4 articles I have read, the .308 could be a reasonably priced answer. The 20" barrel concerned me, but I would still bite. I have spent more money for less.
