2900 is about my average over the years (got the rifle in 1982).

A couple thousand rounds down range and the rifle shoots as well as ever. Got my best groups ever a couple years ago and have been too busy with other rifles to shoot it much since.

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.

A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.
