Bracer (and all): I now have the aforementioned Ruger 77/17 WSM in MY possession!
My rancher friend is so busy hayin and stackin and truckin he hasn't shot it at all yet so he brought it to me late this morning to sight-in for him.
Alas it was to windy here all day for proper testing - so hope to get to it tomorrow (July 14th) early.
He brought two brands of 17 WSM ammo with it - both are 20 grain loads (Hornady and Federal).
The scope is a Bushnell 3.5x10 power with A/O.
I won't try the trigger for pull weight and crispness til it actually gets fired - I have no 17 WSM snap-caps or fired cases so no info there yet.
Wish me luck for tomorrow.
Bracer, be sure and let us know how your Rifle shoots.
Hold into the wind
