I built one on a Ruger 77 tang safety action, years ago. The first stick splintered on the third shot. So the next one, a laminate, was glass bedded by a gunsmith. I shoot it pretty regularly,about 100 to 150 rounds a year. I just love it! My standard load is about 2200fps with a 400 grain bullet. I also shoot cast bullets as well and some 350 grainers as well. Very pleasant to shoot, brass is easy to make, and bullets pretty easy to find,; just a wonderful cartridge in a gun that fits me perfectly. And I am still alive, I think.
