Ruger American Generation II .308 Winchester 20" Threaded, 3+1 - 3+1 Rounds | 20" Barrel | Gray

I bought one of these from Bud's last November. The Ruger American has a good reputation for accuracy and I loved the looks of the Gen 2. Two day shipping got the rifle to my FFL quickly. I really liked the rifle, but the chamber was rough and I had to send it back to Ruger. They quickly replaced the barrel and returned it in a week. Unfortunately, Ruger decided that their factory trigger at a decent 3 pounds wasn't heavy enough. They replaced the first trigger with an awful trigger I couldn't adjust. I replaced it with a Timney, problem solved. Bottom line is the rifle shoots lights out with everything I have fed it, and the muzzle brake makes recoil minimal. It's going hunting with me this November. I recommend the rifle and Bud's. I may have to get another one.

buds was great But shame on you Ruger great looking rifle feels good but bolt carrier was broken when arrived will not extract case spring is weak and will not grab case lip

Absolutely love this rifle. Mounted a vortex diamondback. Sighted in at range then took to Texas and shot a 205” buck at 160yds.

I am not impressed. I spent so many hours researching this gun and everything I read was good and the guy at the gun store I had it delivered to had one and he was bragging on how accurate his was but that has not been my experience. I ordered ammo with it to start testing and so I would have brass for reloading later. The gun shoots about a 3.5” group at 100 yards and that was the best one. I brought it home and inspected it and retightened everything and in doing so I noticed the stock was touching the barrel on the right side but I went ahead and put another scope on it and took the stock off and inspected it and saw nothing wrong so I put it all back together and back to the range with the same issue. Contacted Ruger and they said to fill out an internet form and they would send a new stock. I done this several days ago and have not heard back from them again. Feeling a little let down by a company I have trusted for 38 years.

Great……………………. Thanks again

Great gun at an awesome price! Light weight, accurate, and looks great!!!

Great shooting rifle. Was on paper by the 3rd shot and was shooting consistent from there on. Virtually no recoil and a joy to shoot.

Wow - Super nice rifle , better than expected !! Well boxed [ rifle in wrap and foam ] , The fit / finish is better than the pictures show ! , the barrel is centered in the stock [ free floating ] , the bolt action is so smooth and looks great , all metal finishes are very nice ! I fit a 5 round p - mag , cycles perfict , Vortex scope , the factory " comb " is just right , the rifle functions / performs well and shoots true ! Basically lots of rifle for the money ! as usual good service from Buds ! Am satisfied - YEAH !

Great feeling product from Ruger, excellent turn around time from Buds. Will follow up when I get to shoot it.

Finally got a day to get out and shoot this baby. It did not disappoint at all. No hard recoil, no feeding problems at all. I did buy a couple 10 round mags that work great. Fast shipping from buds. Thanks again.
