New model with some modern updates on an old classic. 20 MOA Rail, 5R Rifling, threaded and, yes, it comes in 6.5 Creedmoor. I like the wood stainless look. ![[Linked Image]](https://photos.smugmug.com/photos/i-VTVP3T2/0/77fcf820/L/i-VTVP3T2-L.png)

I would not bet against it. Ruger made their triggers better than the old 77, and several Ruger rifles have been shooters lately.

My ruger 77/357 is stainless. I bought a wood stock for it, and it looks exactly like that one. Yes, it is a very cool looking rifle. I like.

Hate to see Ruger sipping the Creed Kool Aid. Yep. And that rail looks like arse as well....
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

I picked up a new-to-me Ruger but it’s not stainless. ![[Linked Image]](https://ruger.com/products/HawkeyeLRT/images/47183.jpg)

I like it I think, though I’d probably want to swap the stock to a McMillan if I had one.
Odds that a ruger American predator will outshoot one of these?

Probably pretty good. Those cheap barrel nut rifles shoot really well.
