Picking mine up tomorrow. Woo hoo.

Hi Sabertooth - any update on the Ruger precision? I was looking at one today - did you get one in the end? any thoughts?

I picked one up on Thursday last week. I haven't had a chance to shoot it yet but if it performs as well as the reviews I will be happy. Not sure what optic to put on it yet though.
Range reports to follow.

Update. Very happy with the new rifle. Sub .5" 10 round groups at 25 meters prone off a bipod.

Tried one. Bolt felt as though it was sliding on a gravel bed. Really rough. Trigger pull must be around 6 lbs. on that particular rifle. Heavy & dragging.
Put holes in the paper okay !!.

For the asking price could buy a used CZ 455 or even a Sako.

used CZ?? Brand new fluted lamitate target is cheaper than an RPR.

One of the members had one at the Club last Tuesday evening to zero. Its fitted with a vortex scope he said the whole package including the scope was just under £1000. Its accurate enough but no more accurate than my CZ that cost me just over £300.
Horses for courses I suppose not something that I hanker after. But it's nice enough rifle.

Was that the one with swarf in the chamber or the replacement?

There's a Magnum version on the way, .17HMR & .22WMR.
