I have noticed recently that this long gun sub site has drifted nearly totally to posts about Ruger's semi-auto carbine/AR offerings. Very little about bolt guns and single shots. (My interests lie solely with the latter so that is why the imbalance peaks my interest.)
The reasons why are fodder for speculation.
I suspect that the new trend reflects both Ruger's sales and related consumer interests generated by their ad emphasis, factory output, and new offerings. Those things of course are shaped by their marketing strategy and understanding of where profits lie.
But then it is also possible that interests in bolt guns' single shots on the part of the Forum visitors/contributors is also in steep decline for other reasons.
Anyway....
