[QUOTE="Dosh, post: 978954, member: 70363"] 444, my son has 7 model 77's and they are all good shooters, but a hunting pal had the same problem with his tang M77 years ago. He went through all the fixes and after owning it for 12 miserable years a gunsmith friend of ours looked at it and said he found the problem. The action was cracked and no one caught it. The smith said due to the action being cast they sometimes (but rarely) crack during the tightening of the barrel. He has never had it repaired and still bitches about it occasionally. I am not a gunsmith and don't know how the crack was found or if it was even there, but may be worth checking. Good luck [/QUOTE]
