To put it simply...great! Great value, great feel, great package (magazines and carry bag), great at the range right out of the box. Is this a $3,500 - $5,000 rifle - no. Is it a GREAT way to buy in the $1,200 - $1,500 range - ABSOLUTELY! I had already bought a SR5.56 in 5.56 and liked felt the same way about it which is why I decided to try this gun. WIN - WIN!!! Bud's of course was also great throughout. Hey, Ruger ... where's a 7.62???

Which I thought was a to stiff for me to hunt with real accuracy with. But not if it was a home defense weapon.3 magazines 2/25 rd. C-Products and 1/5 rd C-Products,I would of gave a five star review but I was inspecting Magpul Magazines.Also Buds was fantastic on Delivery as usual. Boone Co. West Virginia

This rifle is worth the price tag. It comes with everything you need to shoot right out of the case. Picked it up at the FFL, gave it a quick clean and went shooting that afternoon. Troy battle sites were spot on without adjustment. Put 80 rounds of remingtom UMC ammo through with no issues. Weapon cycled flawlessly. Brought it home and ran a swab through the chrome lined barrel with hardly any residue. Took it apart and cleaned easily. Hardest part was the gas piston and that was breeze. Cycled another 80 rounds the following week again with no issues. Excellent weapon. Includes a ruger case, troy battle sights, quad rail, rail guards, 2 25 round magazines and 1 5 round magazine. Bought on Buds layaway with no issues. Delivered quickly and used a recommended FFL for only $10 transfer fee.
