[QUOTE="Hired Gun, post: 694196, member: 1290"] We recently accurized a 2 MOA Ruger all weather in 7 Mag and the gun is now an honest 1/2 MOA shooter. We took him varmint hunting and he was near 100% on digger sqirrels to 350 yards with 140 grain Ballistic Tips. If it's a wood stock, free float the barrel and bed the lug. Nothing under the barrel anywhere. Plastic stock, leave it alone. Just be sure to tighten the front screw first to about 60 inch pounds. Rear screw about 40 inch pounds and the center screw no more than 1/4 turn down from first contact. A fresh 11 degree target crown, crisp 2 pound trigger and a muzzle brake sure didn't hurt anything. Lap the lower rings to 90% or better contact and use a good quality scope. He is one happy camper. Several people have fired this rifle and 1/2 MOA or [B][I][U]better[/U][/I][/B] is now the norm.
