Ruger SR-762 Discontinued
I suppose it was inevitable given the soft AR market and the softer 308 market. Plus a declining market for piston guns.
I always liked the SR-762 and saw it as more of a heavy patrol rifle rather than a long range platform. Not that the rifle wasn't capable of decent accuracy but the lack of a free-float barrel didn't make it ideal for shooting at extended ranges.
Anyway, here's a photo of mine in it's current state. 51T muzzle device to use suppressed. VTAC LPSM for mounting a sling. Trijicon RMR for an optic along with a mount for an Aimpoint 3X magnifier. Furnitire remains stock Ruger although I believe later production guns came with Magpul stuff.
I had always wondered if Ruger was going to make a takedown version of the 762 with the ability to swap to 6.5 Creedmoor, etc. I guess now we have an answer....

“The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."
