Exxxcellent Pellet Rifle - NOT For Children!
By Carl
Powerful, and so-far, reliable. I've run about 50 pellets thru it and the volume-level is beginning to decrease. Read the product description carefully, especially the section on Legal Disclaimer and the states to which this weapon CANNOT be shipped. That tells you something about its POWER. 18-yrs. old to buy from Amazon... I bought mine from the Big-Blue-Box store, (sorry, Amazon, I had to see it, hold it, and check it out in PERSON.) ... This is a HEAVY (9.5 lbs.) weapon, takes some getting used to (break-barrel-cocking,) requires mounting and zeroing of the scope, no open-fiber-optic sights, single shot. Single-cock mechanism is excellent, instead of the clack-clack-clack of other multi-pump pellet/BB rifles. I've found that Gamo .177 red-point pellets fit tighter into the breech than Crosman standard lead pointed-tips (which are a little wobbly,) and the Gamo's are more accurate, probably due to the better pressure. Auto-safety engages with every re-load. Danger range is
650 yards, this is NOT your "momma's" old pellet rifle, Ruger's recommended age for use is 16-years-old, with a rifled barrel this thing screams at 1000fps (lead pellets,) and is accurate, once zeroed and "dialed-in."
The weight, length, stock and cocking mechanism of this rifle take some getting used to, so be prepared for some practice and tinkering. I've also read of "some-scopes" not being accurate or "adjustable" enough. Mine has worked fine and is very clear. With a name like RUGER, I expect fantastic results and many years of use. Carefully read the instructions - - - this is a powerful pellet rifle.... Thanks for making it available, Amazon!

Brilliant Design But Kind Of Heavy!!!
By Mickey
I love this air rifle. It is very powerful and as usual being built by a rifle company is very reliable. There's not much more to say because it is what it is and speaks for it's self.

nice rifle
By ray
Heavy rifle, feels good. First five shots out of the box after I put scope on, using RWS superpoint extra 8.2 gr pellets. 2 landed in the circle the other 3 within an inch of the first two. Look out ground squirrels. The first time it happened to me that a gun is dead on out of the box. Thanks, I'm going to have a lot of fun.
