Ruger American Hunter

The Ruger American Hunter has recently caught my eye, 308 a'course. Magpul stock, 20" heavy barrel. Anybody handle one before? Thoughts?

Looks like a winner. The rule says you get to pick one up and tell us all about it. I’m sure that breaks your heart, but rules are rules....if you have to explain it to anyone else.

"HEAVY!"

To be honest, I'm really not impressed with any of the heavy chassis rifles, my idea of a rifle is my little Husky 4100, beautiful, comes to the shoulder like a quail gun, accurate as hell, and gives you a good azz kicking in the process. It's damnably handy, and I like to carry it, Miss Wilson the same way, 308 of course.

I'm in love the Tikka Lite Veil in 308 of course, LOL!

clarifying where I'm coming from

Yeah, it's a heavy piece of iron. I have since picked up a Savage PT10-SR and I'm waiting on Magpul to release the hunter stock for the Savage. This gun is a shooter with an amazing trigger. Just needs a little character.

They are very accurate guns and if long range is in your wheel well then it is the gun for you .. that Magpul stock is awesome and very very well made put a good bipod on it and get with the program I know I shoot one
