Home Forums Gear Free Classifieds WTS: Ruger Gunsite Scout - 308Win

For your consideration - an excellent condition Ruger Gunsite Scout chambered in 308Win.

I bought this a few years back off of a Buddy. He set it up for hunting, had an outrageous scope on top, told me he shot less than a box through it (he included the box with a few rounds still in it), and never actually took it hunting. I took off the scope and kept it with the open sights. We enjoyed banging steel with it out to 300 at the end of range sessions a couple times. I've personally shot it 30-40 more times with some hand loads that I had for another hunting rifle. I never hunted with it and can say it is in extremely good condition.

I've enjoyed it for the time I've had it, but time for someone else to enjoy it.

This is for the rifle only, as it sits in the picture(s). (Rifle rest and bag are not included.)

$875 + shipping. The receiving FFL must accept from an individual.

16 or 18inch?

Rifle measures 18” from the tip of the muzzle to the front of the action.

I responded back to ya, flattop!

Pm back to you Cameron

Any clue where the front sight came from? That isn't factory, and that's a good thing.

I know it's obnoxious, but how obnoxious is the report and muzzle blast from the short barrel?

StudDuck - The front sight is the factory original for the scout style rifles. This rifle is one of the versions that were not threaded for a break (Ruger Model 6810), but is otherwise similar to the various other Gunsite Scouts I have seen (e.g. Ruger Model 6803).

There is definitely a report, but can’t say much of a muzzle blast was experienced. Looking back at a handful of videos, I don’t see any actual “blast”.

(Caveat - my main hunting rifle is an M600 350 Rem Mag with 18.5” barrel..)

Rifle is no longer on the market - a trade agreement has been reached!

Congrats and thank you for the information.

That's a nice rifle.
