the 77 is my favorite bolt action platform. i have them in 77/22, both original and newer models, tang safety 358 carbine (favorite), RSI in 308 and 2 frontier rifles in 338 fed and 7/08. all had so/so triggers but were able to be fixed by my gunsmith. the tanger is especially nice. my 77/22 squirrel gun has a dayton traister trigger and a bushnell 4200. it is a tack driver with cci mini-mags. my sons both have 77/22's that are stock and shoot pretty good but could use some trigger work. i always recommend them to folks looking for a bolt gun.
