Ruger Scout Rifle 6830

Great service from Buds.....This is one tough weapon,,,Control Round Feed (action is not the smoothest but good), accurate out to good distances when you consider such a short barrel. Great for it's purpose.

Perfect, just as I expected.

This is a really great version of this rifle. The polymer stock makes it about a pound lighter than the laminate wood stock. And the muzzle brake used on this model, instead of the flash Hider on all other models, actually does help tame the recoil, even

AWESOME RIFLE

I needed a .308 rifle for my collection and had heard about the Gunsite Scout. Glad I bought it! I put a Vortex 3-9x40, sling and bipod on it. I had to send one of the rings back to Ruger because it was too low and the scope hit the front rail. Ruger exch

Good Choice

This is a good rifle. In 308 it is a pleasure to shoot all day. Plenty of knock down power for any North America Animal. Accurate and reliable.

Update

Since my last review I've contacted Ruger about plug screws, in the event someone, like me, wants to remove the weaver base for scope clearance when mounting the scope back closer to the shooter. Ruger sent me the screws at no charge. Very quickly I might

Great firearm

Put a scope on my Gunsight Scout and had it bore sighted at Cabelas today. Went over to Barracks 616 shooting range to sight it in, and all shots grouped very well. Right now it's 1" high at 25 yards, good enough until the weather warms up so I can z

The mags need a little work. I have to give this gun many stars it replaced my Remington vtr. I'm very impressed small,light,and accurate at long range. Good job Ruger

Great Rifle In Any Configuration!

I have had this rifle for over a year now and marvel at its versatility. Iron sites at 50 yards it is dead accurate. Scout Scope even tighter. With a 4X12 and rail kit, it is unbelievable at 200 yards. Be sure to use good ammo, 308 WIN ONLY and don't go w

Great Gun

I purchased this gun because I wanted a shorter rifle that would work well in a blind. I was also looking for something with length of pull below 13" because I'm on the short side. After much searching I found the Gunsite Scout. I shot it with and wi

Problems

Bought this gun and took it to the range. I used factory Winchester 308 rounds. The rounds would chamber but after firing the bolt was extreamely stiff to open. I shot 5 rounds and all extracted the same. I took the rifle back to Cabela's for them to send

Go to gun!

I bought this rifle because i had heard a lot of great things about it and had watched some testing videos, so i decided to give it a try. Quite possibly the most versatile rifle i have ever owned. I have hunted everything from deer to elk to cougar to be
