[QUOTE="comfisherman, post: 2950821, member: 8394"] They transitioned to threaded somewhere around 08, there is a specific serial number correlates to v block and thread. The 77 22 tennon is the same diameter but a different length with a different v block location as well as the second extractor cut. There used to be a kit to adapt 77 barrels to 1022 but they didn't go the other way without cutting the tennon depth. The bolt shims are a popular tweak, but some did not need them. Triggers always needed work as the factory ruger trigger were very heavy. These days they sell for a premium, stock choices as well as barrel options have also completely dried up. All that adds in to a tough sell compared to the 700 clones. 20 years ago when mine got put together they were almost unique in the category, but the footprint war clearly was won by the 700.. would be hard for me to rationalize a 77 in today's world.
