Finally had a chance to swing by the shop to pickup the gun. All I can say is wow. This is by far the best Ruger I've ever owned. I was expecting the gun to be heavier than it is. It is well balanced in the hand and feels lighter than it is. The trigger on this gun is without a doubt the best factory trigger I've ever experienced. Even though it pains me to say it the stock is much better looking in person vs. interweb pics. Overall, build quality and first impressions are very high.
Only one "issue" though. The gun won't chamber 5.56 ammo. I can't get the bolt to close on my cheap "223" Armscor 62gn ball or the 62gn Barnaul. However, it chambers and closes commercial Winchester 55gn with ease. Should I get the chamber reamed to 223 Wylde or leave it as is?
