I am new here and this is my first post though I have been research everything possible on this site.
So here it is I have a Ruger m77 mk II in 220 swift. It has a 24" barrel.
I want to have a stiffer barrel on it but my wife says I have a limited budget.
I was wondering if it would work to chop the barrel down to 20" to make it stiffer but I still want to be able to shot out to 700yd accurately on coyotes and/or rock chucks.
It shots good holding sub moa groups at 100 yd but just want more accuracy at longer range.
Side note this rifle is glass/pillar bedded and floated barrel.
Thanks for your help
