    I have a Ruger American plain black model in 7mm-08 with a Leupold scope. My son and I have hunted with it for 3 deer seasons. We have taken 9 deer with it. I use Hornady Full Boar ammo with 139 gr. GMX (copper) projectiles which shoot sub MOA in this rifle. I typically shoot high shoulder shots, and it performs well. I really like the rifle. I think it outperforms its price tag. In fact, even though I bought it for my son, I usually take it hunting in lieu of my Remington 700 in .30-06 when he is not using it.
    Keep up the good work. I really enjoy the content you produce. Greetings from Central Kentucky.

    We are FINALLY allowed some form of rifle here in Illinois for Deer. I grew up using a 20 guage with a fully rifled barrel and a scope with modern slugs like a hornady SST with the full copper jacket and a polymer tip. I was one of the lucky ones with a good set up too! Most were lucky to have a smooth bore barrel and a rifled choke with no scope. My 870 had about a 150 yard ethical range. Now we can use straightwalls which aren’t nearly as good as what you are rocking with in a 308 but 350 legend, 450 bushmaster, 300 blackout, or 444 marlin are definitely superior to what I grew up with. I just went with the Ruger American Go wild chambered in 350 legend and it definitely is a pretty gun with the cerakoting bronze barrel snd the sweet camo. So I am excited to get it sighted in and ready to go. My step dad had the money to go all out so he just had a custom 27” barrel made for his Thompson chambered in 444 marlin. 444 marlin is by far the most superior strsightwall round. We were able to test it in the late season in January when the law officially went into effect. It definitely was a wicked round but the 444 marlin isn’t even close to available for your average guy. He can afford to buy custom ammo. So I went with 350 legend because it was probably one of the most available guns you can find ammo for. Anywho I am ranting lol. Thanks for the video!

    I have the go wild in 300. I've taken 3 elk with it so far. I did take the muzzle brake off and just put a thread protector on it instead. I hand load for it and it really shoots well. The ranges for where I live and hunt elk and deer are pretty close but sometimes you see them across open areas and ranges get longer ( 300 yards is a good poke in the mountains s for me anyways) It really is a great rifle for what you pay and I've been very happy with it.

    Yes, I would be interested in seeing your 3-rifle review, as you mentioned I currently have a Ruger Predator in 6.5mm Creedmoor " with a Boyd's aftermarket stock" and I did also replace the trigger spring polished the bolt to remove machining marks and it shoots very well. I have two Thompsons (Venture models- however) that you mentioned you may compare against the Ruger. One in 223 and one in 308 " replaced the trigger springs in those as well and they too both shoot well, magazine feeding as with the Ruger is poor. The Axis Savage I have worked on and put a Timney trigger in for a friend and it also shoots well. will watch for your comparison video.

    I am not surprised about the not wanting to shoot single rounds in that rifle. Often times you need to buy a follower for single feed. I have done that in the past for some Remington 700's for bench shooting. Very nice video. I have been looking at these and considering a 6.5 PRC but after seeing your results it might be better for me to get a 308. I do have one already I let my grandson shoot. And when they sight them in to suit themselves, I usually just let them shoot the rifle and I don't use that one when I hunt. I have so many rifles it's hard to even choose what to use anymore. Very nice video.

    By the way its cool to see others who enjoy firearms and hunting. It really is a nice feeling being connected to your food. I usually look at the animals I am hunting and ask “does this serve a purpose” ducks, geese, deer, turkey, doves, etc I love to eat so it does serve a purpose. Granted I sure do love taking home the trophy buck. I have never had a monster but I look to get one with a bow eventually. Now lets say feral hogs, raccoons, possums. You can eat all of them and they can be prepared to taste great but typically they aren’t your go to food. HOWEVER feral hogs are horribly invasive and multiply like no other. Decimating fields and other animals. Raccoons and possums have decimated upland birds and other bird species because they are vastly overpopulated and they raid the nest of these birds. So yes all 3 serve a purpose. Again though, I am ranting lol. Have a great day everybody

      Sounds great bro, I grow up hunting with 30-06 in California and I love it. I use 150 gr in my 308 and I zero it at 50 yards and at 100 yards it shoots about 1.5"-2" high and about 1.5" low at 250 yards. Here in Virginia where I hunt 90% of hunting distance is under 80 yards and once I shot a coyote at about 250 yards so I'm good 😁. If I zero my rifle at 100 yards it's gonna shoot about 2.5-3" low at 25 yards and shooting down from tree stands the shooting angle can place a shot where you can completely miss the vital organ.

    PS the great thing about the .308 bullet is the 30 caliber in a short action! And ammo even during these ammo shortage times is still readily available! One more comment on the muzzle brake from an old hearing impaired Boomer; I’d have to buy a pair of hearing aids with noise canceling in order to shoot this gun! So I’m not a big fan of muzzle brakes.

    Nice rifle Sir your videos are great. May i ask what kind of magazine is that? I want this rifle in 6.5 creedmoor and i'm looking to see if i can get 5 or 10 round magazines for this rifle. Also how dis you install the rail on the sling stud? Thanks

      Thank you so much, the rail and sling studs came installed and the magazine is Ruger and you can buy it from many websites. Thanks for watching n God bless.
