BR44 Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 Went out the other day and bought one of the new Ruger Hawkeye's in 338 RCM. Going to give her a try on a Newfoundland moose hunt in October. Nice and short, sights real quick and easy to manuever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strut10 Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 Nice pick!! Let us know how it shoots. Just realized that the RCM is a caliber I need to add to the OTPG eligibility list. You're definitely the first member on the block with the RCM feather in yer cap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tped Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 I have had my eye on a Hawkeye also - can't decide between the Alaskan and African in 375 Ruger. Let us know how it shoots and how you like it. I recently added a standard Hawkeye in 243 and it shoots great - got the wood/blue version and think it is a great looking gun.

BR44 Posted March 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 Will be picking up a African Saturday, couldn't pass it up for the price ($700). It's for the next adventure (safari) hopefully 2010. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BR44 Posted April 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2008 Well, finally the RCM ammo is available from Hornady and suppost to be available from Midway tomorrow, so hopefully, I can have some type of report soon. Did shoot the "African" the other day, REAL NICE, true safari style, off handed-open sights, did OK (I'll take it). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
