I think the Ruger Stainless Hawkeye is one of the best hunting rifles for bad weather that's ever been made. We have four in the family.
I had two and bought two more on sale when they were discontinued. A really good parctical hunting rifle IMHO.
How do they shoot? Ex BIL has old Red Pad, Tang Safety 270 that shoot great with 4831 and 130 BT. Best I remember it shoots good with about anything.
