[QUOTE="Brent, post: 6966, member: 99"] A few questions, but first I'd like to say that all my Rugers and my buddies have all shot well under MOA with very little trouble at all, so Ruger does make accurate rifles, and they all seem to be comparably faster barrels than most as well. Is there ANY imperfections on the crown? Is there any pattern to the fliers, all high, left etc? Using windage adjustable, and or dovetail rings? I can't remember if the older M77's had the "good" dovetails in the reciever or not. Are case necks producing zero runout on fired cases? You can fire a 10-20 round group with the caseheads marked and indexed "up" in the chamber, reload them and do it again. If the group is tight and round on the second group and has fliers on the first, the boltface is likely out of square and is the culprit. You might use a match bullet to get it shooting first, at least you'd know you've reasonably done everything you can as far as bullet consistancy go. [/QUOTE]
