Picked up a Gen II Ruger Scout in 308 today. Not nearly as solid or pretty as my Gunsite Scout, but I'll put a Burris Scout scope on it and see how it shoots this weekend. Also, anyone know what the little black knurled thing that came in the box is?

Got my hands on one of these today and almost bought it, the action is definitely not premium quality but for the price, with all features included especially the integrated iron sights it does strike me as a great bush gun/ranch style. Decided to go with a Tikka instead. Everything about the tikka was far superior and it was only a few hundred more.

That Battue? Yeah, a solid choice.

I actually went with the t3x varmint stainless in 6.5, completely different style of gun but I wanted more range capability down the road. The scout would likely max at like 300 accurately

Solid choice. I have one in 223 and it’s a laser.
