Absolutely. Why pay more for a hunting rifle when the Ruger rings come with the rifle and work fine?


Here's my old (1982) M77 7mm RM, 10 shots in a very gusty 40+ MPH crosswind (radio said gusts were hitting 60+):

1989 Ruger M77 .257 Roberts:

No target pics for my MKII .223 but it routinely shoots .5" groups at 100 yards and i use it to shoot clay pigeons at 500 and 600 yards. (At 600 I miss most of the time but rarely by much unless the wind is kicking up.)

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.

A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.
