Hi, I am looking for a general opinion on the ruger compacts... I am thinking 7mm-08(have been following that thread). I know that there are comparable rifles such as the tikas, featherweight model 70's, and remington 7. I alread have a remington 700 in 30-06 and and another (older) 700 in 243 and then a thompson center contender in 223. all that considered I find that my 243 doesnt get the time in the field like it used to. if im varmiting I take the 223 and if anything bigger I take the 30-06.
I really like the looks of the stainless steel ruger with the black/gray laminet stock and I think that the 7-08 will be a good middle ground between my other two hunting rifles.
I am currently thinking about trading the 243 I have now for the compact 7-08, but I could always use more insight from some folks who may already have some experiance with the little rugers.
what say yall?
Thanks,
t george
