    If you are talking about "The Late Boy Scout" video, it looks like he just didn't have it seated properly. Once it was in well, it seemed to have no problem.

    I agree the exchange rate is going to suck, but even at a 25-30% premium to the USD price, it is still cheaper than the Steyr (but inline with the Ruger..)

    Possible alternative, Mossberg MVP 7.62?

    Curious if these mag kits would fit standard savage rifles.

    Yup that rear sight needs beefing up, also would like to see a left handed version and as said before a 7.62X39 version.
    No such thing as too much ammunition or toilet paper...

    The steyr is expensive but at least it is a Scout. Not sure what these things are. At least the Ruger has the gunsite treatment to it. The original scout concept made weight at the expense of features generally considered necessary in a combat role bolt action battle rifle. Short barrels and heavy weight are a problem. The way the gun magazines are reviewing them they are carbine length sniper rifles with a box mag, none of which was the point of the original.

    A bit off topic question. Who sell Steyr Scout in Canada?

    I like everything but the muzzle break. Luckily that can be removed.
