Looking to pick up a Ruger American for my son in .243. He primarily likes whacking varmints and coyotes, but goes with me to hunt things as large as deer, wild boar and black bear.
I've heard the quality control at Ruger (and most companies these days) has been spotty; but since it's primarily JUST those with problems who complain, I'd like to hear from those of you, regardless of caliber choice, who have purchased a Ruger American. How is the build quality? How is the trigger with respect to smoothness, creep, overtravel, stacking etc? How is the accuracy?
