Thread: Ruger American Rifles - any good?

The American .243 I had in 2016 for 3 months was shite. The stock was made of bendy plastic that made a Sistema sandwich box feel like Kevlar. The first two flimsy magazines failed, google that particular problem. It flatly refused to feed the third round, then broke. Twice. Infuriating! The third magazine went back with the rifle, it wouldn't free float due to the bendy stock and the fellas at the shop sensibly traded it for a rangefinder. It shot well enough, no better or worse than either the Tikka or Howa in the same calibre.

Never again.
