Hey guys. I have another question. I do not have a "modern" bolt action rifle. I have been reading two of Col. Coopers books, and I am sold (at least I want to try it) on the Scout Rifle concept. The only rifles out there now that fit the criteria and are production type guns are Steyr and the Savage. I can't afford a Steyr now, and I am not quite sure about Savage as of yet. (though I have heard many good things about them. Maybe...)
So, this got me to thinking. What about Ruger lightweight rifles?
How do they stack up against the Savage Scout in the quality, accuracy, and reliability departments?
Are there scout mounts available? What about apeture sights?
How are their triggers out of the box?
Any comments on Ruger bolt guns will be helpful, but I would like to know about any of your experiences with the lightweights in .308 if you have any.
Thanks again.
