No feelings towards them, but looks like a decent price available on one in 6.5 Creedmoor.
I really haven't looked at them so I figured I'd ask here.

I picked one up for my kid. It was the package with the vortex. Overall it shoots well under MOA. I haven't actually shot it for groups after the initial zero. But I used 3 different kinds of ammo and all were under MOA.
Seller is asking $850 with a Vortex Viper 4-16 and an Odin Works compensator. Might have to ask if there's ammo, too.
I don't know much about the viper. But I think the package i got came with the crossfire for around $550.
I saw that package after you mentioned it. The 4-16 is around $400 and the comp looks like $100.
The have one in .308 and I really like the rifle. I will say that the stock sucks. I put mine in a Magpul American Hunter and that helped tremendously with the balance and feel.
I also bought a new bolt handle from Anarchy Outdoors that I like.

I owned one. It was easily a 3/4 MOA gun, even down to 1/2 MOA. I didn't replace anything, totally stock running Hornady match ammo. There are tons of people who have seen the same results so i think its safe to say these have been pretty consistently accurate rifles.
I had one prior to the Magpul stocks coming out and it was a shooter for sure. Pretty decent trigger but the stock and mag absolutely sucked. I had to sell it a while ago. I would strongly consider another one if the price was right. With a little bit of shopping I think you could do better with finding a Tikka. Much better aftermarket and all in all a better rifle. Especially if you are going to be spending the money on a new stock.
I had a standard Ruger American in 30-06 when they first came out. I sold it and then got a American predator in 308. They are both very accurate rifles and I am very happy with them for the price. They make a great cheap, light weight hunting rifle. The customer service with Ruger has been good in my experience also.
The rugers are good rifles but I wouldn't invest any money into upgrades on one. Maybe a Boyd's stock but that's it.
I have an American Predator in an Oryx chassis with a Vortex PST II, It'll shoot 1 1/2" @ 200 yards, and easily hits 10" steel at 500 yards with 140 ELD Hornady, hard to beat for a $400 rifle in a $400 chassis.
