Any places in OKC have this rifle in stock?
I couldn't wait any longer, so I went by Academy this morning and picked one up. What a great gun! As soon as I got home, I ran about 250 rounds of Federal Lightning through it. At first there were a few stovepipes, which I expected, but after about 150 rounds I flushed everything out with some RemOil. After that, she was smooth as silk. I did have a few FTFeed that were my fault. Using the carry case as a shooting pad, I allowed the action to move up between the pouch. This caused the charging handle to drag and resulted in the FTF.
I was very impressed with accuracy and precision as well. I repeatedly dis- and re-assembled between 10 shot groups, and had ZERO movement of my groups. At twenty yards off the table with iron sights, I was punching ragged holes. Occasionally there was a flyer, but those were after having to clear a stove-pipe. I briefly mounted a red-dot (until it broke), and as far as I'm concerned that is the only way to go.
Can't say enough good things right now. If that changes, I'll let ya'll know. Ruger is slowly but surely winning me back.
