Google shows it to be actually made in Europe with an msrp of 2999.99.

I built an ar off their 458 upper. Finally got it to the range only to find it won't feed. In fairness to them their email response time was only a couple days. They asked me to take a picture of the bolt as they suspected that was the problem. Must be a known issue. Haven't done it yet so...

As I think about it my friend I hunted with didn't bring his own rifle (I did). Since there were only 2 of us the master guide lent him his 375 ruger and usually stayed on the boat. From this standpoint it probably is more likely a 375 ruger rifle will come in a more "lendable" rifle, ie...

Just did a coastal brown bear hunt in SE Alaska. Was surprised to see 2 of the 3 guides had 375 ruger guide guns. Both with leupold 1-6x IR scopes. The third guide had a custom 375 H&H with irons. Contrary to much of the Internet chatter, on the boat from which we hunted 375 ruger ammo was...

I can't speak highly enough of my Fulton armory m1 carbine. I had a ww2 parts carbine that would never consistently get through a magazine. Finally gave up in it and got one from Fulton. Its a fantastic little firearm.

The 375 ruger guide gun is more compact than any comparable h&h I've seen while maintaining the same or slightly better performance. This is the reason I bought it and I'm very glad I did so. I have yet to encounter a PH or guide who gives me grief about the muzzle brake. If I wanted something...

Good point Craigc. A couple hundred rounds of 375 ruger is potentially a lifetime's was worth. I don't know where the term "junk" cartridge comes form. I can say I have successfully hunted and killed in South Africa a cape buffalo with a 375 h&h rifle. Nevertheless when I went looking for a...

I own a 375 ruger Alaskan. I don't reload. You are limited in ammo. Nevertheless I am very happy with the firearm. It's durable, versatile, accurate, portable, relatively inexpensive and capable of taking all game in North America (and arguably Africa although a little light for elephant)...

Get a marlin in 35 Remington. Great round. A 6.8 spc AR may also suit your needs but not necessarily more powerful than 30-30. 45-70 is one of my favorite hunting rounds but you will be limited in in ammo choice if you are recoil sensitive.

Got the same email. I'm curious as well.

Like I am sure many on here I own a lot of ARs in multiple calibers. Some guns I build with a piston. Some I don't. Each has it's merits. Light weight, hunting and target builds don't get pistons. Most others do. I'm about 50/50 on both types. I have found the osprey to be the best drop...

I went on my first Cape buffalo hunt in South Africa last October. Not wanting to deal with the hassles of transport I borrowed a gun there. It was an fn 375 H&H bolt gun. All the PHs had side by sides. The recoil really wasn't bad. It performed well on the buffalo I was lucky enough to shoot...

Sorry if I missed this bit I did not see anyone mention the at least anecdotal superior feeding reliability of the 357 sig given its necked down structure.

I periodically use a spear for feral pigs when I hunt with dogs. A large boar or even sow (180#) will take a long time to die while you have that spear in its vitals and it is not a friendly creature during that time. This is even with a good heart stick. The boar especially turn tusk at...

I've built several ARs up using bravo company uppers. All were 100% reliable. I've put aftermarket pistons in a few (osprey) only because they are easier to clean. For what you describe I would get a light or standard weight 14.5" upper with pinned flash hider from BCM and build your...
