If you haven't tried a scout scope, they are something else, I am a big fan. I think they would be worthless for a guy used to glass, but for those of us who only know how to shoot irons, it is nice. First scope I haven't hated in a long time.

Wow nice rifle. I know what I want for my new truck gun now.

Thanks for the review and early thoughts. Looks like an intense little package with LOTS of practical uses!

Just another one of those moments when I wish I was right-handed. I doubt very much they'll ever make one lefty.

Put those doubts aside. Ruger now offers it in a lefty!

Just looked at the overview on Ruger. That's it, I friggin' want it.

I know normal scope mounts on a scout rifle kind of defeat the purpose, but I still love the fact that it's an option. Also, with that shorty barrel and standard threading, I'm thinking this would be a fantastic suppressor host.

I wonder if any companies are working on replacement stocks for these yet. I mean they have them for rem 700s, and this rifle already accepts mags. Either way i think at some point I'm going to get one of these.

Why would you replace the stock? Look at it! *drool*
