....was to produce an American Rifle in 22-250 with an 8" twist, how many of you would want one?
I enjoy handguns and I really like shotguns,...but I love rifles!

Absolutely would want it. From all the talk on this forum about the 22-250 with an 8" twist, several should be chiming in. Put me down for one.
If we live long enough, we all have regrets. But the ones that nag at us the most are the ones in which we know we had a choice.

Great idea. I have a Ruger flat bolt 22-250 with 1:8 and it is a great deer killing setup.

No.
Ruger needs to fix that low comb before they get to introducing new cartridge setups. This isn’t 1920, and the American doesn’t come with iron sights. So I see no reason for a Pre 64 Model 70-esque comb height.
Besides, the 223 does everything needed in a 22 caliber with currently available bullets. No sense burning more powder when about all it amounts to is added noise and recoil.

My wife says yes to, she would like one also. She also says to pay no attention to prairie whatever or Shrapnel if he shows up.

I'll need a left handed one, but as a human with balls, I would like to see the 8 twist.

Few years ago maybe. Now, not really.
