Ruger Scout, a little gem...

I've had Ruger Scout for a couple of years now, and the more I shoot it, the more I like it. I originally set it up with the Burris 2.75x fixed power scout scope, which was pretty good. But then Burris came out with a 2-7x variable scout scope, and I switched to that for the option of a little more magnification. Couldn't be happier with that set up. Took two deer in Texas with it last fall, and am considering taking it to South Africa for plains game in a couple of years (once I get the cash saved up).
 
I had one and rebarreled to 338 FED what a great handy ugly duck. However my old buddy asked me about a gazillion times a week to sell it to him. So to shut him up I sold it. Bought a 550FS in 9.3x62 or I would be looking to build another 338 FED scout rifle.

Be careful of this Wolfen guy. 2 messages. Both trying to sell something. He PM'ed me trying to sell something and he PM'ed my friend on here trying to sell something. Fishy.

Hi Dr. Ray, I will be in Cooktown from Oct 16 to Oct 23 fishing Lizard Island Black Marlin Tournament.

I have several "slack" days after fishing before I head for stay in Sydney and Fiji.

Do you have any recommendations for 1 or 2 day hunt near Cooktown?

I've hunted both DG and PG in 4 different countries in Africa.
Thank you,
Bob
