    Had a look at one yesty. Have to say Ruger are doing some good things lately.
    I would think it would really suit some pig hunters broken down in their day bag.
    Good fun on short 3 gun courses.

    Guy at our club bought one. He has tipped a goat over with it.
    No 40 S&W ones coming into NZ I hear?

    Nice review. The rest does not give fore end control so may account for the slightly vertical groups.

    GC had them at $1600 so $1200 elsewhere sounds hopeful.

    i looked at a youtube vid, the bolt face assembly is not part of the bolt itself and can be removed without tools. the weight in the bolt assy looked easy to change too. so since the barrels come off i think the idea is that it may be likely that upgrade kits of bolt faces and weights (plus mags etc) may be on the market in the near future for varying calibers
