I had one in 308 once. Wish I still had it. I'd like to snatch one up in 6.5x55. Very nice

I saw one in 250-3000 once at a gun show. $450, and that was back in the early '90's. At that time I didn't have the money....but what a deal that would have been.

I have three, all in .308.  What can I say? I like the looks and they were were all very low priced. Long and storage story behind those deals. Paul B.

I had a Mark II RSI in .308 for about 2 months before my neighbor, the Ruger nut, had to have it. I swapped it for a Stainless Mark II in .243 with a 3-9 VXII AND a T/C Triumph. I thought I did pretty good for a $550 investment. It is a sweet little rifle though. Maybe I'll have to look for another.

The Ruger RSI makes me wish I was right handed... Indeed. The OP's .243 is a nice little rifle in my favorite chambering. Also drool-worthy is garyb11's SS 6.5x55. IF I needed more than 2 rounds of 6.5x55 to close the deal in my deer woods, the problem would definitely not be the rifle or the cartridge... Mine is 6.5X55. Great little gun. First two shoots will give me 1 MOA. After that you need to let the barrel cool. ![[Linked Image]](http://i676.photobucket.com/albums/vv127/garyb11s/deerpic.jpg)

It looks better on your floor than it did for the 11 years that it sat in a box, on a shelf, in my vault!

It was a bucket list rifle. I hope you enjoy the 52.
