Anyone have one? Looking to see what folks think of them and is the kick equivalent to the American? Looking at a .308 for reference.

I have one in 300BO

I don't think they have much more recoil than the Americans

Have been considering one in 5.56 for a truck/ATV gun

the Ranch hadn't been in 308win , they added that recently

they had been mini actions 223, 300blk, 350 legend, 5.6 Grendel 450 bushmaster that would feed from STNAG mags "AR-15 pattern mags"

the 308 Ranch is an American with a AICS mag using the Gen2 American stock but offered in the shorter 16.1" barrel with threaded muzzle , it appears everything is a threaded muzzle , which means Ruger was listening to the , plea of for Pete's sale just thread everything at the factory would you .


will you see a recoil difference between a standard American and a shorter lighter American gen 2 probably not

short barrel 308win tend to get a little blasty in the noise department but are short enough to take a suppressor well. which cuts the blast down.

if recoil sensitivity is an issue the ranch rifle in one of the original mini action cartridges would give less recoil like 300blk but also les range.
