My opinion here, but based on all the 77s I have owned and been around since Ruger started making their own barrels, the odds of getting one that won't shoot are slim. I'm not talking benchrest here, but MOA is the norm in my experience.


If we live long enough, we all have regrets. But the ones that nag at us the most are the ones in which we know we had a choice.
