My wife has been going out to my hunting lease with me. And now she wants to hunt also. I wanted it to be special to her so I purchased her the new Ruger American "Go Wild" in 7mm/08. This model has the muzzle break. Comes with a picatinny already installed. I put a nice scope on the gun for her. And loaded up some rounds. Loaded some Hornady 139 gr SSTs. Easily bore sighted and I easily shot a 1 inch group at 100 yds. I've been letting my wife practice with a .222. The muzzle break does a fine job on the Ruger and really lightened up the 7mm/08 for her. She shot a 1 inch group 3 times shooting 3 round groups. Glad to see her excited and ready to hunt. I would definitely recommend this rifle.
