    Can't agree with you @STC. I've got 3 rugers now. .22 , 223 and 6.5 creedmoor. Straight out of the box they shoot bang on. Yes the machining on the bolt is a bit rough and yes it should be better but a bit of work with autosol or similar will quieten it down. The trigger is fine for a hunting rifle but I put in a timny just because I could and thought it would be better for punching holes in paper. Not much problem to punch 10 rounds through a 1in dot at 100m. Plus they have an excellent half closed action and I like a tang safety. Good rifles at a good price.
