[QUOTE="WoodsCraft, post: 3909939, member: 51836"] That is not what most who have owned them experience and it's most definitely not been my experience having owned at least 15 M77 rifles over the years. They are a more finicky rifle than a Winchester Model 70 or Remington M700 when it comes to accurizing and its not just as simple as a bedding job. Ruger rifles have always had what can only be described as marginal triggers and even on the original M77 which had an "adjustable" trigger they were sub par compared to their competitors, that angled action screw also allows for over torquing and causing the action to pull down and back which affects accuracy . When they shoot though they can shoot really well as I have owned examples that can but most certainly NOT everyone of them has , in contrast I have never owned a Post 64 Winchester Model 70 which wouldn't do at least MOA or better , for decades they were the only commercially produced bolt guns that were bedded and free floated from the factory, even the Model 700 wasn't for most of it's production you had to get a Varmint or a CDL to get those benefits . As the BDL and ADL weren't given such a treatment. [/QUOTE]
