475Guy,

You hit it right in the X ring! Nobody even comes close to producing a big rifle like the RSM for that amount of $$$. Ruger has some flops, but so do all large manufacturers.

My early 77 in 338 was the most accurate out of the box rifle I have ever had, and I owned a gazillion when I ran a gun shop. The rifles are as strong as anything out there. I would shoot a blue pill in a Ruger long before I would consider doing the same in a CZ or Whitworth.

His idea was to bring good firearms to the average shooter at affordable prices.
