When I first asked Charlie about the project, he said it was just as easy to get a 77 to shoot well as a Remington 700. The load used on this buck was a 168 TSX with RL-19, which usually put three in 1/2" or so at 100 yards....
If I'm not mistaken, isn't the rifle used on the Mex mule deer the same Sisk custom 300WM Ruger 77 that's currently for sale here on the 'fire? Posted here: Custom RugerM77 with Banser Stock


Pursuit may be, it seems to me, perfect without possession.
