Ruger Precision Rimfire

[Delfuego]

We use rear bags (no rabbit ears). Mono-pods are for "mall ninjas"

Those Ruger's are a pretty good little rifle for the $400 street price. I had one in my squad at Hoser's. Ran like a top!

Yea, I kinda thought the same thing until I took home a Gen 1 RPR in 243. I’ve not came across a factory rifle in it’s price point that can compete with it.

Picked up one today. Seems like a good solid rifle. Plan to take it out this week and put some rounds through it. I'm told they are very hard to get. This was the only one in town and one of the biggest stores said they can't get them. (They had got two but sold really quick.) I put an Athalon Talos on mine. I'm hoping it shoots good.

there's an Oxymoron

Does sound that way doesn't it. The larger store said they were really hard to get. The small shop I bought mine at had two and had sold one before mine. They also said they are very hard to get. But on another note, I did shoot it and it did very well. The best groups were with CCI Standard Velocity with Wolfe Target coming in second. The CCI Mini Mags shot decent but not near as good as the SV and Wolfe.All groups were shot at 50 yards and conditions weren't excellent but they never are in Oklahoma.

Pyscodog how big were the groups you shot?

Dan, with the CCI SV ammo it would put 5 touching at 50yds. Pretty much just a ragged hole. The Wolfe was almost as good but the CCI was definitely the best. The HV ammo shot well under an inch at 50. It was the first time out with the rifle so more testing with different ammo is in the near future. I did buy another brick of the CCI SV this week-end so I have plenty to test with. The rifle has a great trigger too. Advertised at 2 1/4 pounds but with my scale, mine breaks right at two pounds.

Picking one up tomorrow. As soon as I get some good rings or a mount I'll try it out.

As mentioned a couple times-Ruger & Precision- I think not.

Do you own one ?

Do you own one ?

Why would I when I have several precision rimfires, but yes, after shooting one I will still state Ruger RF and precision-not the same.

Evidently you didn't read my reply. If you want a tacticool rifle looking RF, buy the Ruger.

Do you have pics of your Ruger groups ?

Not wanting to stir the pot too much, but....

The winning score last Saturday at the Pueblo Colorado Precision Rimfire Match was shot with a Ruger Precision Rimfire. That little rifle (with a good shooter behind it) successfully beat Vudoo, 40x, CZ, Fortner, Anschutz, and Savage. This was not a 22BR match, but a prone match with very small targets from 50-200 meters. 81 of 88 possible points. Redemption (or revenge) will have to wait until the April match.

That was quite a feat,a young gentleman won the junior division in the Lapua practical challenge with a Ruger also...also placed very well in Overall. Cheap entertainment has it's merits too,great way to get folks involved...plenty precise enough to build confidence which is key in my book . Young and old have an inexpensive way to get into the sport.

I won one and just got the call thats its in. picking it up tomorrow.

Anyone know if the rail is 20moa?

Daleboy, I work for a living and just now had time for a response. Groups were not worth keeping and I very seldom keep old targets. They are just past history.
Remember, forums are opinions and my opinion is different than mine. That is OK and I won't get my panties in a wad over it. If you love the Ruger, go for it. I will shoot my CZ.
