I can hardly believe this is Ruger - looks too good to be true.

I look forward to shooting one of these.

Any grip, rail or stock, adapt it as you wish.

You think it'll take as long to arrive here as other Ruger products take, which is usually 12-18 months after they go on sale in the USA?

Nice price too (they reckon the $1300 RRP will be more like $1100 out the door from most dealers)

Thought that looked like a Savage type trigger

Wonder why 6.5CM & not .260Rem ?
Good to see them also offer .243 & .308 as well

Over to Viking Arms to fetch a container full over

Full spec etc. here.

So how much here in the UK ... ... ... £12-1500 perhaps?

1 in 10 twist for the .308 ?

Thought 1 in 12 was more popular. I usually see 1 in 10 on rifles designed for subsonic or very heavy .308 bullets.

The .308 is only a 20" barrel, so aimed at tactical crowd.

More interested in the 6.5CM myself, 18005 / 6.5 Creedmoor / 10.6 lbs / 24” / 1:8 / 34.6”, 42.25”, 45.75”

"Only" 20 inches ??

I thought that tactical was considered nearer 16" nowadays - like the LMT etc

With a bolt gun, 20". In semi-autos 16" is common, but most DMRs have 18"-20" POF Revolt etc.

I can see this Ruger marking the end of straight pull .308s in the UK when it's finally released.

I cannot see me giving up the LMT in a hurry.
