I just want a good every day rifle that I can either take through the woods or put a fair amount of rounds through during a range trip. I'm not looking for match accuracy, but I do need to be in the neighborhood of where I'm aiming.
I need to be taken to school regarding Ruger rifles. I'm interested in their Hawkeye models versus their budget American line. I've read online where Ruger rifles aren't the most accurate made, but I want to hear what INGO has to say.
Rugar Gunsite..................I like it.
M77 triggers can be made OK but not more than that. They are reliable and able to fend about anything thrown at them, but they don't go light and will always be creepy. The RAR version is a better option in all regards.
FWIW, Timney offers a dropin replacement for anyone who wants a much improved trigger for the M77.
Dunno how good it is, as mine is the old tang safety version, which is said to have a pretty decent trigger as is, and I agree; although I'm sure there are plenty of others that are a bit better out of the box.
