This. Cheap, fast, and effective.You can also put a piece of 3/4 inch (or 1 inch, I can't remember which size) PVC pipe on top of the magazine follower allowing single loading.View attachment 7111885View attachment 7111886

I just ran over 90 rounds through it a couple hours ago. No issues of any kind. Can't speak to dry firing.So I just yanked the trigger spring out following the instructions on that video. When I cock the bolt, it doesn't always reset the trigger. Any ideas? If open and close the bolt aggressively, it seems to cock every time.
Just lifting the bolt handle to dry fire doesn't work anymore.

.308 with 24" barrel?? My .308 with 20" shoots just fine and dandy at 1000
I had the same issue. (See my post above). The trigger pull adjustment spring needs to be put back in. But it is very difficult to get the trigger back in. That is what resets the trigger properly.
I'm not sure why it's not working for you. I've had zero issues with this mod so far.I had the same issue. (See my post above). The trigger pull adjustment spring needs to be put back in. But it is very difficult to get the trigger back in. That is what resets the trigger properly.
This is too funny. Not only does my RPR behave the same, but I just got back from fishing the Elk, Oldman, St.Marys and Crowsnest.Curious everyone's thoughts. My 6.5 RPR shoots best with a few rounds down the tube. Not a clean bore but my groups shrink significantly with a warm barrel. I'm talking maybe MOA first 10 shot group down to .5 MOA after shooting 20 or so rounds. Why is this?

I have a Gen 1 or 2 RPR in 6.5 CM.
the replacement shroud that Ruger sent me is a piece of shit, it doesn't even fit correctly or snuggly.
Its all janky like a key on a keychain.
That said, I was looking at the aftermarket aluminum shrouds by LRI: Long Rifles Inc for about $60.
Anybody tried them? know about them? good? reliable?
thx
Thx buddy, that's all I needed to hear, going to order it now ...I have one and it fits great. I had it cerakoted by them too in armor black (did the white inlay myself).

LRI also has the Snipers Hide edition shrowd replacement....
My factory 223 mags were garbage too. Couldn’t fire 10 rounds without a jam. I picked up some Accuracy International ones and they shoot like a dream.Hey there, new to the RPR platform.
I purchased a 223 version for PRS practice. Happy with everything except the magazines. Continual feed issues, like can’t get through a whole magazine. I have filed and massaged them to no avail.
So I’m looking for a metal magazine but can’t seem t9 find anyone wit( inventory. Any suggestions?
Also, has any had feed ramp issues and/or filed the ramp area?
Thanks, John
What's the recommended zeroing range for 6.5 PRC? 26" Barrel RugerHawkeye long-distance. 100 yards? 200 yards" etc...Which is the more accurate? Ruger Precision rifle 6.5 PRC or the Ruger Hawkeye long distance 6.5 PRC? I want something long-range in this caliber with Ruger not sure which of these I should get for hunting. The Hawkeye Long Dist TARGET rifle has the better barrel...but why call it TARGET? Is that not fur hunting, outdoor weather conditions?
morning rpr shooters
I had a gen 1 6.5 when they first came out, then sold it during a time of need...
I just got a rpr in 338 and really enjoy it. I wont be doing hundreds of rounds at a session anymore, but did 60 on my first range trip with it. Target is from 2nd trip to range. 300 yard qualifying group for longer ranges.View attachment 7125109View attachment 7125110
Been a while since I've been on here. Saturday was my first range day since I had mine Cerakoted. Went just for fun this time around. Next range day, I'll dial in again and get started on tight grouping in hopes of shooting competition next year. Have tons of brass saved up.

Those are nice looking (green) ranges.
In CA, you gotta drive up to a few hours just to find a range over 100 yards, and they look like this: In CA, we get the drought and dead vegetation, followed by big rain storms!
Is it possible to buy new bolts for the rpr? I've shot out my barrel on my gen3 in 6.5 creedmoor, and I kinda want to rebarrel in 223 and turn the rifle into my trainer.
Has anyone done this ?
Damn that's to bad, guess I'll have to think Bout if I want a 308 trainer or sell the rpr for a bolt action 223 of some sortUnfortunately, they do not sell the bolts separately. Which is unfortunate because I’ve seen this asked quite a bit.
^ Nice. Found one of the righty wife and lefty me sharing the bench on the 100 line. This keeps a marriage healthy lol

My lady shot competition in high school so it was like she was back on the range. She was hitting steel at 400 yards like nothing.
Is there a big difference in the gen 1 vs gen 2?
Hey what is that pad on you cheek rest? Looks good.300PRC is shooting great. Top round in the magazine is tough to chamber but smooth on all the rest. I replaced the ugly brake with a mad scientist.
