Well this is embarrassing, I posted my question in the shotgun forum by accident.

I would really like to buy one of these rifles in .223, can anybody tell me reasons I shouldn’t?
Essentially my goal is to have a varmint calibre rifle that is capable of long-distance as well as having something fun to shoot on the range up to 100 yards. I would prefer the irons vs a scope. Any issue with finding a spare 10 round mag which to me is a must and reliability? I would also use it for club level 3 gun, I was never a winner to start with as I prefer a revolver. I have not found much online so any help is appreciated.

I have looked into the American Ranch and MVP but are so hard to find.

Looks like you accidentally posted in the shotgun forum. I've shot the American Ranch and found it OK, liked the fact that it uses (my now defunct) AR-15 mags. The short barrel on that rifle (16") was a bit obnoxious though. I'll probably just get a Tikka. YMMV.

Click to expand...

I found the rifle obnoxious at first as well... with 55 grain loads. Ramping up to 64... and the sweet spot, 75 and 77 grain makes this rifle shine.

Oh yeah, and i sold a Tikka for one. Zero Regrets.
