Old thread but the Ruger Scout is fairly new to me. I have the stainless / synthetic 16" version in 308. I have a Vortex 2-7 Scout scope on it. I also have a traditional scope for the Ruger rings should I decide to go that way. but so far, I really like the scout setup. I have 3 loads, with...

Kind of funny though, my 338 RCM Guide gun came with a brake installed and with a thread protector. Same with my 308 Scout rifle, it also included both.

I won one of the 75th Anniversary models at a Friends of the NRA. I either carry it or my Max 9 for EDC. I carry my LCP II when out in the garage or working around the house.

I had it in both wrists while working freighters in Alaska and loading frozen product. Was going to have surgery on one then the other after first healed. After being off for a couple months the left side just got better on its own so never had surgery on it. This was about 27 years ago.

I have two that I carry my Max 9 in, both are outside the waistband. One is a Simply Rugged Cuda and one is a Crossbreed. I have a Ruger Ready Dot on mine, and both holsters work. The Simply rugged carries a little closer and tighter to my body. The Crossbreed is better for drills where I am...

Nice snag for a nice knife.

Who here shoots a Ruger 338 Ruger Compact Magnum. I bought a 20" stainless Guide Gun when they came out. I have factory loads with 200 and 225 SST's, and also 185 GMX. The SST loads do about 1.5" at 100, and the GMX loads do better, usually right at one inch. I loaded some 210 Nosler...

I have either scopes or red dots on almost all of my guns now. At 70, open sights aren't an option for me except for sort range hand guns.

I always carry when in the woods here in IL. Usually, it's my 3" LCRx in 38. There have been cougars spotted in my area, but mostly just coons, coyotes, and skunks. When I go to MN bear hunting if I'm using a handgun, it is my 5" Super Redhawk 44 mag and I don't take anything else. If using a...

My main EDC is my Max-9 with Ruger Ready Dot. I carry in a Simply Rugged Cuda or a Crossbreed OWB. My secondary carry has been my LCP II, but I just won a 75th Anniversary LCP Max and carry it or the Max-9. The LCP II stays with me around the house or in my garage now. The 3 folders are a...

Just looked and I only have the 1976 stein.

I took mine to the range and fired 100 rounds through it. Five different loads using all 4 magazines with no problems. After one more trip to concentrate on which ammo it prefers it will replace my LCPII as a secondary EDC. My Max-9 is my first choice for EDC. I will keep my LCPII to carry...
