Not done with the mount yet but this is my best public land buck so far.

Mine did the exact same thing even while being fired and after being sent back once. In my case it turned out to be a faulty magazine and once replaced with a new one has been 100% ever since. Ruger never figured this out. I learned by accident when i tried a second one on my own.

I would definately try to find another magazine before you send it back also. Mine would fail to feed every few shots. A trip back to Ruger fixed nothing as they tested it with thier magazines not mine. I borrowed anothers shooters magazine to try and it ran perfect. Ruger sent me a new one...

Thanks for the links, I will for sure be ordering some of these.

According to ATI as posted on AR15.com they have never produced a solid can for either model and were approved for the one now in question. http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=6&f=41&t=305635&page=2:

Although I don't have one I do know they are well spoken of. The price seems to be very good and Midway has magazines for 35 bucks.

I get a kick out of the way they tell us we can opt out of the pay to play fee before they have even told us there is going to be one. As I build points for every species this will add to my cost a bunch. I figured this was coming since Wyoming started it and I dutifully paid the price there.

I am currently carrying Hornady TAP in my LCP. This load is an exclusive for Cabela's and the only hp I could find at the time. While hunting this year I had the opportunity to finish a pronghorn that got up as we got close. From about 15 feet I fired 1 shot through the lungs. The animal...

Mine did the same thing when I first got it. With mine the problem was tracked down to a faulty magazine that was not letting the rounds set up quite high enough to feed properly. I figured this out myself using a borrowed magazine. I had sent the pistol back to Ruger but they could not find the...

The mount is aluminum and bends quite easily. I have one on a .223 and thought I broke it because it bent so much. It does seem to hold quite well though.

The only animal that has gone more than ten yards was a pronghorn this year that went about 50 or so after a double lung hit and then stopped and just fell over. For the record the elk were all cows.

I have been using the 140gr TSX in my 7mm Remington mag for several years now and have never been able to recover a bullet much less one that did not expand. I have taken 3 elk from 100 to 300 hundred yards. 10 pronghorn from 200 to 430 yards and 8 mule deer at similar ranges. All have had...

3 pronghorn in Wyoming. 1 buck and 2 does 1 pronghorn buck in Colorado. 1 Mule deer doe Saturday morning in Colorado 1 cow elk Saturday evening here in Colorado Still have buck tag and either sex elk left to go next week. All taken on public land on my days off. If you add in what my...

Danner boots have worked out the best for me. Cold is a relative thing. Here in the western Colorado mountains it's about 30 to 40 degrees in the morning right now and up to 70 in the afternoon. My boots are uninsulated and are comfortable down to about 15 degrees if you are hiking most of the...
