Good on Ruger

Looks a like a solid contender to the Rogue, as far as weight is concerned. I’d be interested in seeing the bolt face.

6.8 lbs for the 16.1".
7.2 for the 20". Sounds like a win. |

Their budget AR’s are solid. Their piston system was a little too heavy for my tastes but the multi caliber options was a cool concept.

Big 'ol chonky barrel because the average Ruger fan will slap on a chinese scope and hammer away with tula 308.

Either way, I'm curious to know more about the internals of this one. I have… three I can think of. One is a guy I shoot 3-Gun with. He bought it specifically for a race gun due to size/weight. He’s abandoned it due and went to a standard DI system. Now the G2 system really seemed promising and I’m not familiar with widespread failures. I’m curious why it never really went anywhere. |

YMMV but I hate it when manufacturers fuck with the magazine opening in the lower like that. First, they may think it looks "cool" but I don't. Second, that "zig-zag" cut just make it more likely for some part of a mag to get hung up on the opening.

I love what Ruger produces and I’m sure it will be quality. They’ve done great by resurrecting Marlin.
I just wish they would produce more of the lineup they offer. I would LOVE to buy a Hawkeye Hunter in an interesting caliber if they just made enough to be in stock anywhere. |
