I don�t know what the original author means by �poor� design. The Rugers are widely regarded as very strong receivers and Ruger�s the investment cast manufacturing process is superior to hot forging in my opinion.
They say that Ruger receivers by their design are not as rigid as the 700's
and that additional flex is what inherently makes for less [/i] consistant[/i] accuracy.
I've got a couple of M77's, a .22 and a .308 and I'm very happy with their accuracy,but they are field rifles.
Thats why I was curious to see if a Ruger M77 can be made to achieve a competition benchrest level of accuracy?
