thanks all for the info. So it sounds like the biggest accuracy issue that most of you have had is barrel quality. I'm well familiar with Ruger's early barrel quality issues with their supplier, but when they started making their own barrels, that essentially took care of much of the accuracy problems with both #1s and 77s. So are the #1s with Ruger's own barrels usually better in terms of accuracy, or does the forend issue still plague the rifle's accuracy? thanks again.
