Is there a fix/solution for this short coming with the Rugers?
Was your ejector clean? He was talking about dusty, dirty Rugers failing to eject. I'm a big Ruger 77 guy but he knows what he talks about and I'm not about to argue with him.
Heath is talking about the fact that the ejectors on the rifles they tested did not 'rise' fast enough and in some cases therefore failed to be 'standing', so the case head was not caught by them and the case thrown. They used 7 M77 MK IIs and 6 of the 7 showed the problem. That either suggests they were using guns which were not cleaned prior to the testing -and that that model is prone to getting sluggish when they get a bit of resistance in them, or it suggests that they are really running them fast, much faster than most people ever will, and that the ejector simply wasn't fast enough in rising. I believe it would only take a slightly stronger spring to defeat that failure if such was the case.
