[QUOTE="ATH, post: 1220997, member: 1656"] I've now shot two Ruger Americans, a .223 and a .243, owned by friends. 1) These are not premium-feeling rifles. No surprise for the price. Bolt throw and feeding leave something to be desired. 2) Incredibly impressed with both triggers. They put Remington to absolute shame, and are on par with Savage but I actually give Ruger the edge without the whole blade issue of the Accutrigger. Both guns I told the owners not to bother messing with the factory setting of the trigger, it was that good. 3) Very impressed with the accuracy. The .223 went right to work dispatching prairie dogs out to 400 yards, and did so with nearly the regularity of my custom 243AI shooting next to it. The 243 I shot is not broken it but already shooting sub-MOA to 300 yards. I'm already telling people who want an economical factory rifle who don't plan on upgrading to buy the Ruger American.
