I think its less about moving them than the add-ons that get added when somebody buys a Ruger American Rifle in 308, 243 and 223. The store makes the money on mounts, rings, slings, scope. Its the combo meal at McDonalds vs. eating lobster at Red Lobster.
If you can't move the rifle, there is no need for the mounts, rings, slings, and scope
