[QUOTE="dok7mm, post: 1136225, member: 90080"] I have had a number of M 77s and really liked them in calibers up to and including .280, but found them to light for comfort in larger calibers. Years ago, I was tempted to ream a 77 to STW and the smith talked me into a 26" rem 7 mag donor for the build. I'm glad he did. My current build is on a custom action w/ a 26" 3B Bartlein, mainly for the weight I appreciate on a STW. It may not be fair, but there are many more options in stocks, etc. for 700 based builds. At the very least, make sure the M 77 is a shooter before you ream it and go thru a lot of components. Bye the way, welcome to the forum. There is a lot of knowledge here and I'm sure you'll find plenty of answers when you need help. [/QUOTE]
