Regarding MKII Ruger 243's.....

Do the Ultralight models in 20" have the same accuracy problems as the old tang safety models did???

I read a lot of complaints on the old model Ultralights not shooting good at all and unhappy buyers

I got to wonder, for my 13 year old, the 20" is more portable, in and out of truck, treestand, blind, thick timber of the Northeast, cuz he aint gonna fill out w upper body strength another 3 or so years.

The 22" once scoped is not a light rifle for a kid

I wonder is the barrel the same contour just shortened on the chamber side, or shortened on the muzzle

Thanks in advance for sharing your experiences, much appreciated!

I like 22" for center fire cartridges 30cal and lower, but this is a rifle for us to share and ultimately for him to get to carry and make memories on
