- Taking my first shots with the Ruger American Ranch. You just can't beat the price on this, and it's an absolute tack driver! it's not the smoothest running bolt gun, but it gets the job done just fine!
Well thats it. Two videos into this rifle and now I need one.
*stacks 5 in the same hole. “I’m a shitty shot”
I’m never that good! Idk what happened that day, but I was on point!
I need one of those American gen 2 you're stacking those groups. That rifle chooooots good buddy!
Appreciate your video. Was tossing up between getting a new lever Rossi r95 and this. Might have to get both. Cheers from down under.
You thought you were missing but it was just that accurate. Pretty amazing. Been looking at one of these in 308 but ended up getting an AR10 for that Cal so might have to do 300 BO on this seeing how good they can be. Quiet too.
Wow great groups, this rifle may be my next purchase
damn that thing is accurate. think i will get one myself
That’s definitely a keeper mate, thing shoots fantastic, well done ya got yourself a new sub cheers Yogi 🤙✌️🇦🇺
Thanks!
I was going to update my 2016 300 Black Ruger Rancher to,the Gen 2. But have decided to keep my early Gen 1 with its fully round bolt without the bolt cutout.
I think the early Ruger American has a smoother bolt.
New MDT LSS stock, get it coated and go shooting.
That's damn impressive for a 300 blk sub.
Good grouping .. nice 👍👍👍
That's a first shoot where you carefully put the rifle back in the case, and never touch a thing ever again. lol That's a definite value.
Haha! Exactly! I’m still so shocked how well this thing groups.
That settes it; I gotta get one!
i have gen 1 with magpul stock… its 5.56 .. very accurate rifle
I bought one yesterday, waiting for my mandatory 10 day waiting period to possess my assault bolt rifle
😂 10 day wait is ridiculous for a bolt gun!
@@Freedom-us3zr yes it is, can’t wait to get out of this state
yo same, and it's 10 buisness day lol.

I picked up my 300 Blackouts Saturday and put the first 400 rounds through it, very accurate, the only issue was sometimes the bolt would freeze up extracting my empty case. It has something to do with the magazine I think. I should get my 5.56 Ranch soon and will see if it’s the same
On my Gen 1 with the Hunter stock, the mag well had to be shimmed away from the action to feed at all. Magpul mags don't feed my subsonic ammo well. Lancer mags work better for me.
Just ordered mine after researching hours on end. I was going to splurge on the Savage 110 PCS, or an Elf Owl, or CZ 600 Trail, but ended up deciding on this for the price and awesome accurate barrel.
I'll drop the action in a different chassis eventually, and cut the barrel down for a more packable build.
Great video!
I have always wanted the Elf Owl, but you just can’t beat this ruger. Sounds like you will have a bad ass rifle when it’s done.
@@Freedom-us3zrWhat kind of groups do you think I could expect with subsonic at 300 yards? What magnification would you recommend for 300 yards and less?
@@itzPowell I’m not sure what you would get at 300 yard with subs. I would think they would be decent because you don’t have the transition from super to subsonic. I like a minimum of 15x at that distance but 20 would be good.
Since you can shoot and have the space I would like to give you a idea for a video. Set your target at 125 yards. With a serious cold bore “ first shot of the day” do a 3 shot group. And see if the cold shot goes 2-4 inches high. I bet it does.
I can do that.
I would like to see it. To make sure I’m not going crazy with my 2 300 blackouts.
Do you by chance know the OD of the barrel inside the flutes around the 12” mark? Looking very seriously at getting one of these but want to cut it down to reduce velocity and hopefully avoid any factory subs going supersonic.
I’m concerned about not having enough meat left on the barrel to get a 5/8 thread after cutting into the flutes.
After building a 450 for subs only to be let down by all the factory rounds, and trail boss being essentially non-existent, I need something that will shoot factory subs accurately and want to explore 300BLK for more factory sub options.
Great shooting by the way!
I will see if I can get a measurement when I get back into town this weekend. Thanks for watching.
The follower on a .300 blk magazine shouldn't be any different, in fact I can't even really think of why they would sell one specific. .300 blk is just a .223/5.56 case cut down and necked.. That being said, that one mag was rough... definitely something hanging up. This rifle has been on my short list for too long. Done a couple .300 blk builds in the AR platform just to get my feet wet and so far, the reality cut through all of the hype. .300 blk is awesome. I loaded up a few hundred rounds sub sonic and went to the range with my daughter.. That was FUN.
The only difference I would think is maybe some internal geometry of the mag body. If the 5.56 body tapers towards the front, the larger projectiles of the .300blk may be cramped and drag inside the body so they opened it up some, but the outside looks identical. Maybe? Just speculating.
@@HALO-2304 Theoretically the exact same mag because they have to fit the same Mag well. The subs that I loaded were 220gr and were VERY close to the front of the mag, I had to take special care to keep them tapped to the back but in the several hundred that I ran, I had ZERO feed issues.. I have yet to go as far as doing a throat depth test but it's always an option to seat the bullet a few thousandths deeper. You do have to know what it will do to the performance of the round tho.. Reloading is a rabbit hole.
wtf men…👍👍👍👍 fantastic groups…
I was very surprised with the group! I’m never that good! lol
Did the stock work out of the box or did you have to modify it for Gen 2?
It worked out of the box.
So I have this exact gun ven with the magpul stock and i ran the Stealth 220 grain ammo and my shot groups were about 3-4 inches at 100 yards. Im curious if there were specific torque specifications for putting the action in the magpuk stock? What did you end ip doing? Cause what ever you did its working amazing! I want the same outcome as yours. Am i missing something?
I didn’t do anything special to get these results. Are you running a can in yours? Not sure how much of a difference a can will make, but I hear it can help. Maybe I can do another video with and without the can and see if there is a difference.
Yes I am running a can. Man idk I've tried a few different ammo manufacturers as well. All the same. About a 3" group at 100 yards
Do you typically shoot better?
@@RockinRack I never shoot that good, but I’m decent.
Is it the rifle or you that is good?
Did you have to do anything special for fit with gen2 3 position safety close up video and function if at all possible
I didn’t have to do anything.
Awesome! That bolt extracting issue is concerning, though. I’ve got my FFL sourcing this gun right now, and I just bought a bunch of reloading stuff for 300 BLK! I figure I’ll shoot it more slowly with a bolt gun than an AR platform! 😂
Is this the new gen 2 rifle just released by Ruger?
Yes
