Got my Ruger All-American, Preditor. In Yesterday.
6.5. Creedmore Caliber.
Only complaint, or concern. Stock is about 1 inch to short it seems.
Will add scope. When decided which brand. Perhaps it will work out.
All in all. Nice rifle for my price.

I have one in .308 and it's a killing machine.

I want one in either .308 or 7mm-08 (they don't make it) with the shorter barrel. May have to settle for the Creedmoor. Stock will immediately be replaced with a Boyd's, most likely.

Yeah, it may come to that. I really like the Standard I have in 7mm-08 but I like the thought of sharing ammo with my other .308. Trying to decide whether to add another caliber to the fold (Creedmoor) or share the ammo. Won't be this year anyway, most likely. Plus, imo that green stock is pretty bad, hence the Boyd's.

Even with the factory stock it shoots really well.

scope it first, get your eye relief correct, then if stock is still too short look at stocks

That rifle is deserving of a really good optic, DON'T GO CHEAP !!!!!!!!


I don't think there is an after market trigger for them yet, but I have been wrong before

I think the Ruger American is the best bang for the buck!!!

Great Choice
