Sounds like a righteous deal to me? If your happy with the groups claimed, and condition of the rifle, I'd probably snatch it up too.
Rugers get a bad rap here and there, but Ive had many, and got several that shoot just as good as any of my Remingtons.
Wished I still had my Ruger hornet, that little rifle was a consistent sub inch grouper, and shot the light 35 grain Hornady v-max into several 1/2 inch groupings.....great rifle.
Im with you Fooge, I prefer light handy rifles for calling, and leave the heavy weights for shooting stuff off a bench.

Yeah, if you are looking for approval, sounds like a fair bargain, to me.

The cartridge itself? Not as versatile as a 22-250, but (with the right bullet) should handle coyotes at moderate ranges.

Good hunting. LB
