I think I'll stick with, "Only reliable rifles are reliable". wink

I will say this about the RAR, for a rifle allegedly conceived around a campfire, it has a number of strong points learned, I presume, from mistakes others have made or designs which have proven themselves. I have to admit that the RAR magazine reminds me of nothing as much as the plastic junk mags that have always been the obvious WTF on Remington's 581/541 22 rifles. How much better it would have been if Ruger had borrowed a concept more like Remington's M788 magazines.....like Tikka did? grin

As I told a Ruger neophyte at the range this fall who was holding the pieces of his new RAR's magazine in his hands, Send it back to Ruger; they'll take care of you." That is quite different than saying they'll make it right, which is too bad.
