A friend wants a DR&keeps mentioning Rogue River,anyone have any experience with one,good or bad?thanks.kim

The Rogue River Rifle Co. has been absorbed into Rigby USA. I believe the action used was a modified Merkel shotgun action. The rifles are not highly regarded by the AR members but I found them OK. I had a 500 NE and it shot well but was very heavy. They are now priced too high for what you get and I feel Butch Searcy offers a better gun for a lot less money. I would also consider a Heym or Chapuis before the Rigby for less money.

LJS,thanks. ill pass it on. thought the Searcy was a better deal but i didnt know.
