Guys - Not trying to be provocative just curious.
I don't get the LER scopes & why they are beneficial.
I also don't get the short barrel on a the Scout .308s.
I understand the gun is supposed to be
light but it seems to me you give away the long shot capabilities
of the .308 with the short barrel.
So if the Scout is for 200 yards & closer, why not a 30-30 with Hornady
Lever evolution.
If I read correctly the Gunsite Scouts were also designed
to be used for self defense in a pinch. It seems
the 30-30 is much faster at follow-up shots.
Please educate me. I think the Ruger Gunsite Scout
is neat, just not sure what it gets me that I don't already
have.
