[QUOTE="Alibiiv, post: 1935767, member: 69192"] Those two screws are for a receiver sight, there are many rifles that are drilled and tapped like this from the factory. JES, Jessie, has rebored two Ruger 77s from 30-06 to 35 Whelen for me, both are excellent shooters, I would not hesitate to make a 300 yard shot if it were presented. My son and I shoot 8 inch steel plates at 300 yards with ours. At 100 yards it will shoot MOA. We both use the 35 Whelens for black bear hunting, the guides smile when we tell them we are shooting Whelens. When asked about the smile they say, "Because we don't have to track them!" Good luck with your grandpa's rifle, enjoy "it" and may more fond memories with it. [/QUOTE]
