happycamper 0 Posted July 13, 2014 Is it good? Any experience or comments? It will be for shooting clay. Price is about $1000-1100. Sound reasonable. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kirk2022 43 Posted July 13, 2014 Good Gun for Clays. pick up some extra chokes with it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
T Bill 649 Posted July 13, 2014 I do have 2. One 30" SC model from early 90's and a new 30" SC one. Problems? Not a one with either. The older one is a little smoother, but I contribute that is because it is well worn in. Expecting the same from the new one. New one comes with soft case, full complement of chokes (flush fit) and choke wrench. Wood fit is very good on both. I use Carlson's LM and MOD extended tubes on mine. patterns better. Not much else to say. Shotgun fit is the most important in choosing one. IMHO a very good mid range O/U. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
happycamper 0 Posted July 13, 2014 I saw one in Cheyenne and it fits me well. It is over $1100. Just wonder if there is a better price of this gun in other places or online. Feel free to PM me if you know. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Double Cheese 8 Posted July 13, 2014 I have a Red Label that was made in 1987. I use it to shoot trap weekly and I have no complaints. It fits well and absorbs recoil nicely. I use a Carlson's Full extended choke. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Parker 213 Posted July 14, 2014 The Red Label is a stout gun, and over-built like most Ruger's. The knock against the Ruger O/U has always been its weight. I used a Sporting Clays (30") model for a few years shooting trap-doubles and occasionally skeet. I tried to like the gun but never could. I took it pheasant hunting; once. This model was not an upland game gun, by any stretch of the imagination, but its weight makes it a comfortable-to-shoot target gun. I sold mine and never regretted it. That was a while ago, when they could be found used for $500-$700. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
