I bought one a couple months back and love it ive only put about 20 rounds through it but its a shooter love the trigger. I put the burris fullfield 2 4.5 x14×42 scope on it and im very pleased with the combo.

This looks like a sweet gun, exactly what I’ve been looking for……except for the calibers

Too bad Ruger hasn’t jumped on the WSM wagon yet, I’d love to get one of these in 7mm WSM or even .300 WSM.

Have not shot one yet, but saw one at a store and it is on my list to get, the only thing left to get is a scope and it will be better than a 700 with a shorter barrel and you could probably nail a deer with it, shot placement. Mine will be a .308 for sure.

This is awesome! To be clear though, they’ve copied Remington’s 700 SPS Tactical rifle setup. I have one of those in .223 and it shoots incredibly tight. The problem is, Remington announced they were going to drop the sale of their SPS tactical just recently. The reasoning behind this is simple – at $575, it’s outselling their XCR rifles at $1075.

What I see with this new Ruger are some clear advantages:

- The Hogue overmolded stock is extremely popular, but not available on the XCR.

- The SPS Tactical on had one post in the front as opposed to two on the Ruger.

- Added Bipod on the Ruger.

- Added two stage trigger on the Ruger.

- The SPS Tactical only came in .308 and .223 calibers. The Ruger also comes in .243, which will go well with varmiters.

I bet this Rifle will sell very well! Shame on you Remington for dropping the ball.
