[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 911109, member: 8362"] There's alot more to a 1000yd. rifle than the barrel, B.B. As long as you are going to rebarrel though, you'll want to have the action trued, some call it 'blue printing'. You have one problem, your action is a Ruger 77 and most that really build those 1000yd. rifles don't use Ruger 77's. They are a fine hunting rifle, but, leave alot to be desired for 1000yd. 'tack drivers'. At the minimum, find yourself a Remington 700 ADL, preferably, an old wood stocked one, and use it for your build. [/QUOTE]
