I borrowed a friend's ruger GSR to see if i liked it, and figured i'd take a few family photos.

So?......How did you like the Ruger?

[Walkalong]

Very cool pic, and yes, how do you like the Ruger?

[Andrew Wyatt]

I liked everything about the rifle except the scout scope and the fact that i couldn't get the irons to zero, because they ran out of windage.

hopefully it's a one off problem.

when i get mine, i'll put a 2-7 leupold with LR duplex reticle on it, either on the receiver mounts or on an XS rail.

I wish the rifle had an 18 or 20 inch barrel, but such is life.

i'm leaning towards a 1-4x for my scout, probably on the xs rail. the irons are a good part of the reason i bought this rifle instead of going with a short barrel .308 in another configuration. i had no problems zeroing the irons, so hopefully you'll have better luck with your own.

back,during the test for shotgun news,they had favorable results with the leatherwood/hi-luxoptics.com 2x7 on the ruger gsr.
