:D Hello Bulletpusher. I had a Ruger .25-6 that was like yours except that it was the stainless/synthetic version. It was also very accurate. I didn't work up any handloads in it, but it would shoot Win. 120 gr. Positive Expanding Point factory loads 3 shots in an inch at 100 yards.

I ended up trading the rifle, though, for a couple of reasons. It was just too heavy to hunt with, and I ran up on an Auto 5 Lt. 12 shotgun in mint condition. I had been looking for this particular model for a long time, and I just had to jump on it when I found this one in such great condition since they haven't made this model in the last several years.

I do have to agree with you though, this model/caliber combination is very accurate. My gun was completely factory; I did not customize it. I still kinda miss having this rifle though and would buy another one except that it was just so heavy.

I, too, am glad this new forum has started, and I hope it really becomes popular.
