The Rokslide 95 (Ruger American 😁)

[SC HUNTER]

I've got a Ruger American Compact in 7mm-08 that wears a zeiss conquest 3-9x40. It's at my buddy's house right now, his kid wanted to shoot pigs with it and I had no issue letting him borrow it. Between myself, my buddy who has it now, his kids, my brother, my wife and my dad I just tried to count and stopped at 40 deer. That little rifle is beat up and got some rust but it is a killer. I've got guns 3 times what it cost but if something needs killing I'll grab that one. I'll get pictures of it when it gets back home.

10 shots with Hornady Match 75 HPBT at 100.

I have 3 RAR’s in 5.56 now and they all do this. Really like these rifles.

Has anyone heard when the long actions are going to become available?

It’s a shame the Rokstok won’t be coming to the RAR.

RAR with Mcgowen 284 Winchester barrel. Bell and Carlson stock and Pacific tool and gauge bottom metal. Started life as a .30-06. Good shooter so far. Hopefully stockys will have some better stock options for these rifles at some point.

Was that bottom metal a special order? I looked on their site and didn't see one specific to the B&C for a RA. I have my RA .300 WM in the same B&C stock, but still have to use the sloppy factory mags.

Did this require fitment into the B&C stock?

I contacted the company and they said it won’t work on a B&C without modification.

RAR 3 (The Dave) shooting ADI 69’s.
Worked the bolt and my rear bag fell off the bench braking my position. Really screwed the pooch for me because I had a good one going.


Same rifle with 77 TMK’s. Just like the rest of them.

Combo is similar to the others.
RAR 5.56+Athlon Argos (4-20 on this one)+Monstrum rings=1.5 MOA for 10.

I bought a RA Go Wild in 7PRC a few months ago and it has been consistently Sub -MOA. I qualified for the Rokslide cold-bore challenge with it this year. I polished down the bolt to mirror and I hand lapped the action, definitely 95% Tikka smooth. Turned down the factory trigger and while not perfect, it’s acceptable. A lot of performance for the money.

I added a SRS ARCA rail - of note: the factory stock has hexagonal ports to accept number 10 nuts for rail attachment, a really convenient feature:

Here’s my cold bore shots with it:

@686. I’ve bolted stuff to the bottom of mine in the same manner. Really convenient.

I recently upgraded the stock on my RAR 556, went with a KRG Bravo and I really like it.

Glad you’re liking the Bravo. I know you’ve had issue with the factory stock for some time.

 

[justinspicher]

I looked a couple of different options, KRG seemed to be the one that checked the most boxes for me.

Picked up a Gen 2 in 6 ARC today. I really like the 3 position safety and the action is noticeably smoother than my Gen 1’s out of the box.
The stock seems to be more flexible than the Gen 1’s. Although I do like the finish better.
It would need some serious relief in the barrel channel to not contact the barrel.
I didn’t notice any issues off the bipods today. But if this stocks stays with this rifle, it will get some work.
