Bolt-action Rifles chambered in 5.56

[Bigswedegml]

Has anyone had experience with either the Ruger American Ranch rifle or the Mossberg MVP Predator?  I am thinking of getting one or the other and was wanting some input.  It would be nice to be able to use the same ammo as my AR in a bolt-action platform.

I can speak to the LBA trigger that my Mossberg 100 ATR in .308 has.  It is probably one of the best factory setups out there.  The rifle delivers better accuracy than I could have hoped for.  Not sure what the Ruger Ranch provides though.

Haven't shot a bolt action 556 but, what's that pump action 556 that takes AR mags? That's a fun one, my buddy has one.

I 2nd the CZ, it's one of my favorites, but mines in .223

seems like a bit of an argued position, throat length?

I just bought my youngest son this gun from sportsman's warehouse for $399, gets really good reviews on varmint and shooting forums. but it is a .223 rem.

I picked up a MVP in 556 " for the grandson " and I'm impressed !
I have some high end guns and thought this little gun would b great starter
for my young grandsons , but it found it way as a permanent truck gun
And it shoots sub MOA with a load I already had built !! Thinking I might pick one up
in 308 you know for the grandkids

Tikka makes a rifle chambered in 5.56mm?

Yes

Here's a short article on the difference between the two rounds.
A accurate 5.56 may not shoot 223 so good.

Vote for the Ruger American. One of the best values out there
