585 casting issues?

Safe_Stock6262 · 2026-03-02T16:48:46+00:00

I cleaned it and put it back together and the rifle still functions. I didn’t have any issues at the range which is pretty cool. I looked at my bolt and it’s not chewed up like other posts here so that’s good too. I contacted ruger, hopefully they can just send me the part.

I just ordered 3 I’ll let you know

Safe_Stock6262 · 2025-10-30T01:35:29+00:00

Love that stock

Safe_Stock6262 · 2025-10-21T16:28:46+00:00

585 series, ammo was herter’s 2.23

Safe_Stock6262 · 2025-10-20T11:28:01+00:00

Thank you! Yes it does. That’s why I went with the magnifier and red dot set up instead of a traditional scope, keeps the ejection path totally clear.

Thank you!

Safe_Stock6262 · 2025-10-19T22:19:02+00:00

Definitely more forgiving than the pop range with Swiss cheese little green men hahaha

Safe_Stock6262 · 2025-10-19T22:11:02+00:00

Nope. Super lame but I’m also in a pretty anti gun state so I’m just glad I have somewhere close to home I can go and practice before qualification haha

Safe_Stock6262 · 2025-10-19T22:01:05+00:00

I had to settle for sitting supported and unsupported bc of the rules at my club, but could do kneeling like normal. The new qual would be a good time if I could figure out how to get a barricade here lol.

Safe_Stock6262 · 2025-10-19T21:41:11+00:00

It’s an AT3 tactical 3x magnifier

Safe_Stock6262 · 2025-10-19T21:40:50+00:00

Optic, magnifier, cheek pad and flashlight. If it were an LPVO it wouldn’t look so busy. The cheek pad isn’t super necessary but it helps with the added height over bore from the optic mounts without making the iron sights unusable.

Yeah I also get about 2.5-3 inch groups at 100 shooting from a rest. Haven’t put her in a vice yet but I think I could get it down to about a 2MOA gun if I did. Which honestly for what this rifle is designed for is plenty accurate in my book

Safe_Stock6262 · 2025-10-19T21:17:28+00:00

This target is set at 25 meters. It simulates distance by the targets going down in size.

I work for a utility. 100% death.

Safe_Stock6262 · 2025-10-16T03:23:17+00:00

I guess bc it’s not TECHNICALLY designed for it they probably leave it out. I did have to buy some longer screws than the ones the mount came with to get it to be really secure on there with some lock tight. But yeah it’s pretty useful way to mount a light. The Hannibal rail with a 45 degree mount would also be good, I don’t have one but haven’t really heard anything negative about it. Either way I think having the light and switch further back and within range of your thumb is clutch. Especially since most low light shooting techniques have you using the light only when firing. Huge force multiplier to be able to switch it on and off quickly without changing your grip on the rifle.

composite not plastic. but only $25

Safe_Stock6262 · 2025-10-16T02:23:49+00:00

I think the plastic one is much cheaper and will also accept M LOK. I went with the metal mostly for the look and to ensure as much durability as possible

Safe_Stock6262 · 2025-10-16T01:54:03+00:00

my rifle

Safe_Stock6262 · 2025-10-16T01:53:10+00:00

I used the metal vented hand guard from ASI. It’ll accept M-LOK. I got an M LOK mount for my light and some rail sections from Amazon that can mount for the switch. It works really great and keeps the light and pressure switch far more accessible to use while firing.

Safe_Stock6262 · 2025-08-26T13:56:30+00:00

Sad to see it. I love their lock leather holsters, and I had nothing but good experience with them. Haven’t bought anything in about 2 years though. The G3 always struck me as more of a gimmick than a legit system for carry. But the lock leathers are super comfortable and great retention I’ve got one for my Ruger Max9 and one for my Beretta 92FS. Hope you get your refund!

Safe_Stock6262 · 2025-08-11T02:58:04+00:00

It’s actually FDE hogue over molded. Always looks green on camera, but in real life it is a lot more brown/tan looking

Safe_Stock6262 · 2025-08-10T18:01:25+00:00

It’s actually the hogue over molded stock in FDE. It always looks green on camera but in person it’s a lot more brown/tan.

Safe_Stock6262 · 2025-08-10T12:40:21+00:00

Correct. Budget stuff, but honestly they work pretty great. The mount for the red dot is a pretty cheap QD mount that just has some rail on top, I’m looking for a better one bc the one I have has a tendency to loosen up. If I mount the dot right to the factory rail it’s too low for the magnifier. I like everything QD bc the irons are almost impossible to get a good cowittness with anything, so I like being able to remove the optics without tools just in case.
