I bought a #1 Standard in 30-06 used. According to Ruger's website it was made in 1976, so I'm not sure if it has the older adjustable trigger or not.
Earlier this week I took it to the range and the groups were all over the place. I used Winchester Super X Power Point 180 grain ammo.
When I got the gun it only had the iron sights. No scope or rings. I bought some new rings and a new Leupold 3.5-10 Vari X III.
Based on my internet research I've seen that Ruger considers a 3" group at 100 yards to be sufficient.
Earlier this week I would have been thankful for a 3" group at 100 yards.
What's the twist rate for the barrel and what kind of ammo does it like? I haven't started reloading for it yet. I thought I'd run the gamut of factory ammo first.
