Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Ruger bashing.

I can�t speak about the M77/22, as I have never shot one and results on target are of primary importance to me. But I have handled quite a few and would like to get one for the Mrs. I will say I wouldn�t be worried about the strength of the M77/22 rifle � it�s a .22 rimfire.

As to the centerfires, I own two each of the M77�s and M77 MKII�s, and all are wonderful rifles. I floated the barrel and touched up the trigger on all but the M77 MKII VT which came floated from the factory with a two-stage target trigger. I prefer the three-position safety. The angle on the forward bolt is supposed to provide some advantages, but I can�t say one way or another. And don�t care. All of my Rugers shoot very well and as I mentioned above, that is the ultimate test.
