Hickok 45 Reviews the Ruger Gunsite Rifle!

One of the tempting new products from Ruger is the Gunsite Rifle in .308/ 7.62 x 51 Nato. I won't say much about it, because Hickok45 pretty well covers it in this video that he recently posted, but I must say that I am impressed that he and the rifle are hitting a 15" gong at more than 200 yards with iron sights, while he is standing flat-footed, without even using a sling to steady his aim. It speaks well for Mr. Hickok,and this great rifle by Ruger. There has been some talk on the internet about the choice of magazine in this model, and many question why Ruger did not use the M-14 magazines that are commonly available. Ruger said that there is variation in those magazines, depending on makers, and of course, engineers developing a product don't want wild cards thrown into the mix. That is very understandable. If you read about guns online, you will find that M-14 magazines can be used in Model 77 Rugers, simply by doing a little fitting with a die grinder, and locking it in place with the trigger guard, so you might want to check that out if you are so inclined. Anyway, it's a great little package, in a caliber that can handle most situations you might run into, so sit back and let Hickok45 demonstrate it for you.
