I own several rifles in several calibers ,but I want to give a big thumbs up for the Ruger American in 7mm08. First 7mm08 I have owned and am really impressed with this rifle /caliber combination.Best rifle for the money that I have ever owned. Shoots anything you feed it with good accuracy. Topped with a new Leupold VXI it is all I would need for any game animal I will be hunting.
