I have not seen it myself, and my newest gun is a Hawkeye that is a work of art, but my last gun shop visit the owner mentioned a drop in the quality of Ruger's interior fit and finish.
A result of being busy, or a drop in standards due to bean counting, or just one man's opinion?
Just his dumbass opinion. I have several Model 77 Hawkeyes ranging from very late production to first year for that iteration and Model 77 MKIIs from the last year of production going to 20 years old. If there's a "difference" in quality, I'd like to hear some specifics.
