The Rokslide 95 (Ruger American 😁)

Glad to hear its working. Has anyone broken or worn out a Ruger American with high round counts? I always assumed my old Ruger M77II would be stronger so I typically grab it when I'm after bear or on a special hunt. But... I really like my Ruger American.
 
Well the issue this year was I kept swapping the scope around. First, a 1-4 Trijicon while I was guiding. Then I went back to a Trijicon 2.5-10 when I had a late season moose hunt. I'm thinking this year I'll run the Ruger American as a "moose gun" with a solid scope on it (probably a Trijicon 3-9 to be light) and keep the M77II as a guiding gun. I like the backup iron sites and 5 round mag in case I get into a fight with a bear.

I’d be really interested in your experience with a RA as a working rifle.
