[QUOTE="MachV, post: 68748, member: 93"] [b]Re: My Ruger M77 (w/rear tang safety) bolt dosen\'t move smoothly.[/b] Have you tryed loosening the screws?The old Rugers are notorios for being fussy about both torque and sequence. Take the action out of the stock and check to make sure nothing is interfering with the action laying flat in the stock.When you put it back together start all three screws and tighten the front one first,while holding it muzzle up. Then tighten the rear one.Only tighten the center screw enough to hold it in place.Adjusting the center screw often will help with groups too.Pillar bedding them realy helps but is a real pain to get it right.
