A good friend of mine got a Ruger American predator and 64.5 Grendel from Grab a Gun. It cost him $430 total including FFL transfer .
I went with him to the range today to shoot it.His 10rd And 20 rd AR 6.5 Grendel mags fit. And it shot pretty good groups with Hornaday ELDM handloads .
I got to shoot it and I actually liked it .But if I ever got one the trigger and the stock would have to go, the stock is horrible ,it feels cheap.Trigger is gritty and has a long pull.
It?s a Ruger so I?m sure there are aftermarket barrels and triggers already out there . But has anyone changed out the stock ?If so,who makes one?
I?m probably not going to rush out and buy one of these. I?m not ready for another project . But still I would like to know my options .
By the way,in case you are wondering,he put a 4-16x50 Vortex Diamondback scope on it.Which,would not have been my choice.But,it worked.
