A few years ago I bought a new Ruger RAR in 6mm Creedmoor. Wanted it for a antelope rifle. Had to send it back to Ruger for being short chambered. Just 1 dummy round run thru it would have shown them it was defective before it left the factory. No quality control what so ever. Got it back in a month rebarreled. At least 1 other fire member wasn't as lucky and had to wait multiple months for his to be fixed and sent back. What if I had actually needed that rifle to use for a hunt ? Ruger can go f u ck themselves. They don't have anything I need ever again...mb
Sounds like what happened with me and a Kimber Montana... would not even chamber any factory ammo...
The worst thing ever to happen to cops is the personal video recorder... Now people can see the truth

I was one of those members, but Ruger did resolve it. Mine wouldn't chamber factory Hornady 108 but after the rebarrel it's fixed plus it's accurate as heck.

Why would Ruger have a QC department when they have customers that do the QC work for them?
My buddy still has the 6.5 Creedmoor RAR predator with a bad chamber. It shoots, but the chamber is so rough that it screws up his brass. I told him to send it back, but he remembers when he sent in his RAR 223 for accuracy issues, and they gave him a ration of schidt. He says he'll probably never buy another RAR, and just stick to Savage because they have much better customer service.

The past two Hawkeyes that I bought would gouge the hell out of brass. The best customer service that Ruger could possibly provide would be to build guns that don't need problem resolution. That said, when I have needed problem resolution from Ruger in the past, they were very good.

This is just what I can relay from my buddy. He said they were too lippy, gave him a hard time about some defects the rifle had. When he deals with Savage, they have been very accommodating and cordial. Even going above and beyond, to make him happy. Now, that is the way customer service should be.

Some companies just have better quality control....Ruger along with others need attention. My Bergara would also gouge the hell out of the brass but that was the least of my issues including accuracy problems and my rifle arrived without the brass extractor in the bolt. Of course Bergara resolved the issues, replaced the barrel and installed the extractor. Rifle finally shot good 6 months later... unfortunately that rifle went down the road. My recent Bergara 280 ai is the premiere mountain with no issues. Production rifles are just that!
have spoke with three different shops all within a reasonable driving distance to me that got some of the Gen 2 rifles in and they were all sold from a few hours took a couple days they are now completely out of stock and got more ordered. tell us another pretty popular.. I'm sure we'll start seeing reviews on YouTube and what have you seen and some guys on here I'm sure we'll get some soon and get report to if they did good or not..
Picked up one in 556 today. First one store got in. Been wanting a bolt 556/223 and almost bought a used 1st gen a couple weeks ago. Glad i waited. 550 plus tax

I’ve been looking at the Gen 1 556. What are your first impressions of the Gen 2? Shot it yet?
I suspect if you screw the supplied loudener to the left, it will come off. Granted, they could've made it an option and knocked off a few bucks.
I had about made my mind up to wait on a .22 ARC Howa Mini (w/a B&C M40), that said, the thought of the16" Ranch ARC with my suppressor on the end of it continues to intrigue. A bit discouraged over reports of the limp noodle stock, but still looking forward to seeing how they actually shoot.
The Ruger Gen II shoot and function well and are accurate, we have 4 of the 6.5 CM 20" barrel with Dead Air Suppressors, they are what they are an inexpensive rifle. Rio7
Looks like they're vibratory polishing the gen2 bolts in ceramic media, final finish.
He specifically said "non-zippy bolt". Good mercan terminology. These fkn window lickers have finally became self-aware, about how the shooting world perceives their disrespectful lack of final fit and finish!
