Up. This is a 7.62x39mm caliber rifle.

Note: Flash hider is removable. Barrel is threaded.

I never did try steel cased ammo. It never jammed on me with brass though, although I did not shoot more than 50 rounds.

These are solid carbines, backed by Ruger's lifetime warranty (regardless of original purchaser).

Will it reliably feed steel ammo? Only complaint I have heard about them is this, and it is pretty consistent with all of the online reviews I have read.

Oddly enough I don’t think I know anybody that owns one.

Mine does, I think that might be an older issue, mine was made about 7 years ago when I bought it new. If the OPs is newer, shouldn't be a problem. The only issue I know many of them have had was the rear sight loosening as you fire. I had to use some blue loctite to keep it secured.

Mine has reliably fired a variety of brass, but I have never used steel case. Don't know why it wouldn't.

If you want it, meet up and shoot some steel cased ammo. See what it does.

I want one, but just don't have the cash.

Does this have the .308 barrel or .312? Have heard different stories about Ruger barrels.

Since it is a 582 it should have their current standard bore. From my reading, .308 barrels were very early on and scarce.
