No rules against asking these kind of questions in the COHTF. But would probably get a lot more responses in other forums  No there isn't. However when there's a forum dedicated to the firearm in question.... Unfortunately there are many forums within ARFCOM that go unnoticed, till someone ask, in another forum / section of the site. At least it wasn't another hey CO can i bring my mags / firearm, etc with me. |

I wanted to ask the local guys first  I noticed when people post on the gen forum they are noticed by post count...
why.....anyway I picked one up at a good price and had never herd of the gunsite scout rifle before was curious if any of you guys like the gun The GD forum sucks, unless you need advice on your relationship, color of underwear OR sexual proclivities. There's a GD Firearms forum within the Armory section, where i would go for info besides the firearm specific on, when applicable. The few people i know who own the rifle in question like it. |

GD proves Darwin's Theory of Evolution for me, or at least the "common descent" part, by showing us where most of the human race are still just monkeys throwing feces at each other.
I have not actually fired a Ruger Gunsite Scout. In the store, it felt funny and seemed like a really expensive way to get an elk rifle with a LER scope mount. I would not trade my Bubbaf***ed 1903 psuedo-Scout for one, even straight across. (Disclaimer: I've disliked every Ruger I've ever owned. Filter my post through that.) |

I'll be a local in a few months if that helps...
I have one and I love it. Very accurate with irons and not bad on recoil either. I just put an XS scope rail on it and a 10x Leupold; just waiting on a good day to get it all zeroed again. It's got a bit of muzzle jump off a bench, but not anything that's detrimental. It handles well and carries nicely with good balance. With a 5rd magazine and a sling with no optics it makes a nice hunting rifle as well. Scope it and your good likely out yo 4-500m; as long as you had the dope for the ammo/glass. |
