I picked up a used but like new Ruger American from the local classifieds for $225, and that included one full box of Hornady American Whitetail ammunition, and rings. I did the usual wipe down, and cleaned out the bore with Butch's Bore Shine after getting it home, and mounted up a Zeiss 3.5-10x44 after lapping the rings. Yesterday I took it out and sighted it in, and here is the group that I managed to shoot after sighting it in. This is a four shot group, one full mag with a 168gr SMK load at 100 yards.
