    I'm thinking of getting the Ruger American Predator with the Vortex 4-12 diamondback II.

    My brother and I both have Predators. I have Vortex Viper HS and he has Swfa. They shoot well. The stock needs to be trimmed. I didn't trim mine enough and depending on how I had it rested, would change poi. We are waiting in the Magpul stocks to show up.

    Remington is coming out with a 700 magpul Hunter factory one. Street price is about $1k. Also considering the savage model 10 pred.

    Do indeed consider the Savage 10 Predator. It's a fine shooting rifle. Mine is in .260 Remington, which is why I keep telling myself that it makes absolutely no sense whatsoever for me to buy another rifle in 6.5 Creedmore. So far, that's worked. So far....:)

    I saw that 6.5 CM and Vortex combo for sale at the Atlantic Guns Super sale last week for about $550, which was an awesome price.

    They might still have it, but probably not going to honor that one-day price.

    What's the 3-day waiting period?
    Common name and possibly didn't provide a social for the NICS check. System probably didn't immediately clear him, so the LGS will hang on to the firearm awaiting a determination up to three days (if I remember correctly).

    Yeah, but I thought those holds were about a day...

    Varies. Had one place hold 1 over a weekend because they didn't hear back from NICS on Friday. :rolleyes:

    Most of the ones where I got 'delayed', were approved within an hour to 3 hours.

    I have a Ruger Predator in 6.5 sitting at my FFL just have not had time to pick it up yet. I have a Vortex Diamondback 4X12-40 Tactical waiting to go on it. Hopefully over the next few weeks I will be able to report back. Will eventually be shooting be shooting @ 300 yards. At some point in time I will hopefully be heading down to VA with a friend that owns 800 acres and has a steel target set up at 800 yards. On a quick not a guy that belongs to the range I belong to just picked up a Predator in 6.5 and he worked up a hand load that tore the same hole with 3 shots at 100.
