I know they tend to get hammered pretty regularly for all their shortcomings, but I guess I got lucky. I thoroughly enjoy mine, and hunt it and shoot sporting clays with it regularly. My only complaint is the English grip stock, which isn't my personal preference. So I sent it back to Ruger, and they put on a beautiful pistol grip stock for me. So I enjoy it even more. But that's just me.
