Attached File RAR in 5.56 with a Leupold Rifleman 4-12x40 I'm trying to decide if I should submit a Form 1 and cut the barrel back to 11-11.5". Either way, it'll end up with a YHM QD mount. |
I will not compromise!

I'm actually taking it out tomorrow for the first time to get it sighted in for a hunt this weekend. I'll report back on the accuracy it produces. I'll be putting the Hornady 250gr FTX through it. My experience with the No. 1 rifles, which I love, are they either shoot lights out or shoot piss poor. I had a 45-70 No. 1 that shot like absolute crap, and my No. 1 in 460 S&W Magnum also shot poorly. I've had a couple Tropicals in safari calibers, though, that shot really good. My 416 Rem Mag was sub-MOA. With that said, my buddy who is a huge hunter has only hunted deer with shotguns his whole life. He got a Ruger American Go Wild in .450 Bushmaster and asked me to sight it in for him. I don't remember the group size but my final 3-shot shot group to confirm zero at 100 yards was sub-MOA with Winchester 250gr Extreme Point ammo. |

Ruger seems to be one of the more prolific chamberers in .450, but nobody ever comments on their accuracy (which is a historical issue for Ruger). @Seven-Shooter Took it out today to sight in for hunting. I fired 3 3-shot groups, and 1 5-shot group. The rifle shot very consistently. At 100 yards the 3 shot groups were as follows: 1.3", 1.5", and 1.5". The single 5-shot group was 1.8". It's not sub-MOA but I am perfectly content with that for hunting out to 250 yards which is the max effectiveness of the round. I was also fighting the trigger which has an almost 5# pull weight, so it isn't great by any means. Overall I think the accuracy is perfectly fine for a hunting rifle. |

I now have Boyd's stocks on 3 of my 4 Ruger American rifles. From top to bottom 30-06,. .308 and 5.56. Attached File As far as I know they do not make a stock for the 7.62x39mm or I would have that too. |

Since no one apparently makes a wood stock for my Ruger American in 7.62x39mm (other three I own are 2 post above) I decided to spend this sunny beautiful day rattle canning the plastic stock.. Attached File |

Not a centerfire, but it does kinda look the part ![]() That's nice. I wish Ruger would make more Mannlichers again. Maybe a Mannlicher lever action when they get their Marlin assets up and running. Here's my 583 series Ranch Rifle. With a Tech Sight rear sight, a wood handguard, and Cogburn stripper clip guide. Really just a range toy that scratches my Garand/M1 Carbine/M14 itch while using 5.56 ammo that I already have plenty of. The stripper clip guide is a bit finicky and definitely takes some practice to use well. But that's what you get from a rifle that wasn't really meant to feed from stripper clips. Hence, just a range toy. But I still like shooting it more than my AR. ![]()

Many pix of folks using early (Pencil barrel) Minis and folks using later "heavy barrel" Minis. Accuracy claims widely different. Apples to oranges. Later "heavy-barreled" Minis shoot far more accurately than do the "Pencil-barreled "Early" Minis. Even so, the Early Minis can certainly benefit from an "Accu-Strut" and perhaps some careful fitting of barreled action to the stock. My early 185 series Mini, with many mods, shoots within 2 MOA all day long. |
