Picked up at the local pawn shop a Ruger 77 Hawkeye left hand in 7mm-08 at a good price. 7mm-08 is just not what I really want but a 257 Roberts is more to my liking. I would like find a gunsmith that is a Ruger person.

Dave at ITD has done a bunch for me.

It seems Dave is recuperating from a a medical issue, so he might not be an option for a little while.

The collection of taxes which are not absolutely required, which do not beyond reasonable doubt contribute to public welfare, is only a species of legalized larceny. Under this Republic the rewards of industry belong to those who earn them. Coolidge

Whidden gunworks has done 2 hawkeye actions and one Mark II for me. One is a 5 shot 1 hole grouping gun the other 2 I have not shot.... John Whidden is one of the best LR shooters in the USA, nothing I have seen out of his shop doesn’t shoot well. Burke at Whiddens has done them all.

When people face the possibility of freezing or starving there is little chance they are going to listen to unfounded claims of climate doomsday from a bunch of ultra-rich yacht sailing private jet-setting carbon-spewing hypocrite elites
