[QUOTE="LoosingSanity, post: 639949, member: 46072"] Okay, sounds like I can do that. I'll order and try the Model 77s first and trim for a fit as you suggested. If I mess that up, then I'll try the epoxy pillar method. I'm excited to hear you like your daughter's compact Ruger. I've been so upset with mine that I was considering getting rid of it, but now I have some new hope with your interest in it. I shot a nice small buck with it at 365 yards the first season I owned it. Lucky shot! But 2 seasons ago, I missed a monster mule deer buck at 280 yards with this rifle and it still haunts me. Last day of the season. Well, I figured it to be my fault but when I went to the range again, my groups were very erratic. When I first got the rifle, I put about 3 boxes through it before deer season and was 1.5 high at 100 yards. But the groups were about 2 to 2.5" spread with a few flyers. Figure I pulled or something. I should have known..... Still kicking myself! After that season and in the spring is when I fired it more and realised its issues. Again, I should have known. Well, Thanks again! I'll put some work into it.... [/QUOTE]
