So I've always liked the Ruger Gunsite Scout but there were other things I needed more than a Scout type rifle. 2weeks ago I start looking into them a little more and found out that you can mount a scope in the traditional mounting position and the rifle comes with the rings to do this. Then I got the news that Ruger is no longer filling orders due to the company being behind 1,000,000 firearms. So I started looking for one and none of my 5 wholesellers had one I even called a few dealers in Missouri, not a single gunsite on hand. I posted a WTB thread on here and a member informed me that there was one for sale on gun broker. I checked it out and found one for $800 and ordered it. I will zero it at 100yrds with the irons sights before mounting a Bushnell Trophy 6x18 "the only scope I have on hand at the moment" I will zero the scope at the same and then switch go back to the irons to see if they keep the zero and do the same with the scope, using 168gr Federal Sierra Matchking bthp. Now with that said don't start yelling at me I am well aware that both are probably not going to keep zero but I will give it a try, the scope will be my primary on the rifle. Your thoughts? I'll get a range report in the next day or two, the rifle will be in today and my ammo in the next few days or so.
