My goodness!!!

OMG I think I have wood

I had one like this. It shot around 3/4" and got 3800 FPS with 100-grain TSX Weatherby factory loads.

sweet jesus 2nd on the wood

That would probably work ok.

Wow!

I’ve only shot one box of ammo in this rifle- 110G Factory Nosler Accubonds. Don’t know the speed, but best group of 3 was a little over ½”. - worst group was under 1”. It shoots 💥

Very nice, if only my "gun fund" wasn't so low right now. That rifle is a Pronghorns worst nightmare.

I'll take it if it's available! Been on the hunt for this gun for a while!

I have one. Gorgeous wood. With the original pad, unlike that one. But the price of that one at $1600 probably reflects that it’s not all original. Mine is really a shooter too, but the stock cracked near the tang. Thankfully I came across a facebook group where someone had the same issue, in the same part of the stock. They were limited run rifles (Lipsey?). Thankfully, Ruger replaced the stock with no charge to me, and still very nice wood. Maybe not as nice as the original, but above average. The original was repaired and can still be used, but if I ever sell it I will disclose the problem.
