I have the cousin in a Ruger Scout 5.56. Very accurate with my hand loads using the Sierra 69 grain matchking and Varget. So fun to shoot that it can put you in the poor house after a day’s shooting. :lol:

I have lots of 223 brass and powder. Fair amount of small rifle primers. Been looking at the Ruger American predator in 223 with the Vortex scope.

I reload with the same bullet...69 gr Sierra MK. I haven't been able to get Varget when I needed powder to load. Maybe there will be some available after I use up the Norma and IMR.

I looked at the predator as well. I like the longer barrel compared to the American ranch. Not being able to shoot 5.56 was the deal breaker for me.

Nice shooting Jake! Guess you were not too shakey.
