Is that a Ruger American with a Vortex Triumph? 

I have a Gen 2 Predator in 308 and have a Triumph on mine. Your rifle looks very similar to mine except I have the gold-ish brown cerakoted model with the green stock.

Looks good with the FDE and black actually, I almost prefer that. They also look really nice in silver.

That is exactly the set up. I fell in love with the size of the ranch model and waited for the gen 2 once I saw it came with the FDE stock. I wish it was the gold/brown cerakote but I also like the black. 

I actually bought the scope for on my mossberg 500 deer barrel but ended up mounting it in this instead.

The $120-$140 for the Triumph is just an insanely good price with decent Vortex rings included too. I honestly don't know how they can sell all that, and offer a lifetime warranty and still turn a profit. The glass is far better than it should be for the price. 

I actually ended up returning the $400 Burris I had bought initially for the Ruger, and putting a Triumph on it because I thought the Triumph had better glass. I have one on a 223 and on my Ruger now too. I hope one day they make a Triumph in 4-12x and maybe price it around $160 or something.

I managed to get mine for $135 taxes in. Which was insane. I am kicking myself for not getting 2. BUT I am looking at upgrading to a higher magnification scope next fall. The 3-9 is great but I would love something a little higher on this rifle.
