    Ruger American

    Anyone have one? Like it? Thinking of getting one in 223. I shoot most coyotes under 300 and usually way less then that. Seems to have really good reviews for what most would consider a cheap or cheaper rifle. Which makes wonder, why Remington and some others can't bed and free float there rifles right out of the box like some others do without jacking there prices sky high. Thoughts?

    Ruger American

    I've seen 4000 fps in a 45 grain factory load so I cant say I'm surprised. It was to fast though for the twist the barrel had and the bullets would separate before hitting the target. Yeah and I guess its true. Most don't ever try and get optimal accuracy out of a gun as they never really shoot it enough to know or care so it doesn't matter. I know some who wont sight in there rifles for years. How they kill anything is beyond me. Lucky I guess

    Teach me: what do you look for?

    Everything mentioned is dead on. To me it's trying to go find a place were others haven't called and educated them more then anything

    Ruger American

    Tikkas are really good. I wouldn't anticipate doing much to a Ruger American in terms of adding anything accessory wise. Other then a scope. I'd want it for a cheap priced, accurate gun. As far why some manufacturers aluminum bed, adjustable trigger, and free float there guns while others don't, at a similar price, boggles my mind. I like Rem 700s but think of what I can buy for same price or lil more and get everything I want in another gun.

    Optics?????

    dude wtf. so much wrong in this i dont know where to begin. Well you buy what you want. Hunting isn't all that goes on in everyone's lives

    Optics?????

    Swarovskis are great but they do not make game appear that aren't there regardless what anyone hear tells you. As with all things, you have to ask yourself if spending more is worth it or justified based in how much you'll use them. You don't need to spend $1500 or more on one set of binos or any other optics if you are ok with shooting the average deer. It astounds me how many people brag about spending thousands of dollars on a single gun and another few thousand on optics only to shoot little deer. I'd just go back to the Walmart goods and road hunt and use the money elsewhere if that's all you want to shoot. But if you want to really get serious or think you will at some point, buy what makes YOU happy and pay what YOU are willing to live with. I try and find a balance between price and realistic use. It's just like buying a corvette cause your buddies say it's cool, only to realize you should've spent the money on a 4x4 truck you'd use ten times as much, and pay less for too.

    Questions on deer habits

    Almost every time this last week I saw cows, there were deer in the same canyon or hill. Alil odd how often it was occurring. Of course they were all antlerless deer 😣

    Unconventional hunting Areas

    Have any of you ever hunted in what could be called an unconventional or obvious area? What I mean is, every time i go into the hills, hunting, scouting, just passing time, etc, or just down the highways, I am always looking at areas thinking what the hunting there might be like. But some areas I always wonder about are the close by, probably overlooked zones. Like going through a gate on a dirt road. How many people actually hunt the immediate area instead of going way back in like 99 percent probably do. Or the canyons next to a paved road or highway that everyone zooms past or closer to town then most would think. I've heard of people saying often of seeing deer but big deer/elk too in these areas. Yet never heard of anyone hunting them. It's always everyone trying to get far away from these places, myself included. So anyone try it? I know there are animals in these areas but I believe there are probably quite a few big ones as well. It's always made me wonder. Might try it soon.

    Unconventional hunting Areas

    wouldnt worry to much about that. People are gonna hunt wherever they want. A post on this site is not gonna change that. Exactly. I dont think what I posted is some big secret. If people start doing it, that just means another area that used to get hit will be neglected and more animals will eventually be there, again. Most people are too rigid in there routine too change unless it became the next big thing everyone else was doing.
