Just sayin'. donsm70


My experience with Rugers is I've never had a M77, MKII or Hawkeye that did not shoot well. I don't spend a lot of time shooting for groups at 100 but when I have the results have been good to excellent. By "good" I mean 1" to 1-1/4" groups at 100. Most shoot better than that. By "excellent" I mean holes touching at 100. With one exception, all I've ever done to them is tune the trigger, float the barrel and work up handloads. The one exception is a Hawkeye I bedded because it was giving me fits. The problem turned out to be the scope. I've posted target pics before so I won't bother doing so again.



Dammit, I love your target pics too... frown
