[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1735922, member: 87243"] A Ruger M77 has a shouldered barrel like a Remington. And also your MAX length in an M77 long action is 3.430", definitely not long enough for that cartridge. However, You could talk to your smith and see if he would mill your receiver and install a Wyatt's extended (3.850") mag box so that you could, I had a smith here that would, but I haven't heard of many that do or have done it. If you can't find anyone to do it, you will either be stuck with short bullets or have to go with a different chambering. [/QUOTE]
