Ruger American Ranch in .556 $352 Delivered

The short, threaded barrel, plus OK trigger are what appealed to me. I was looking for a light weight rifle. Looked briefly at one Mossberg, but can't remember which one. Was quite a bit heavier, but looked like a nice rifle.
 
I've got the MVP Patrol that uses AR mags, and while it's not a bad gun, I think the Ruger is built lighter and the quality is better.

The Mossberg uses a little drop-down flap on the bolt lug to strip the top round out of the mag, which seems like something that wouldn't hold up real well.

I'm thinking Rugar may do one that uses Mini-14 mags at some point, since their 7.62x39 RAR seems to be selling pretty well.
