I looked at the Ruger 77 MK II Frontier today. It felt really good for a short rifle and would make a great hunting rifle for "box blinds".
I don't really like the forward mounted scope, but I don't remember seeing conventional scope mounting taps! Does anyone know if it comes tapped for regular scopes or would I have to have it drilled/tapped? Also, does the .243 or 7MM-08 shoot well from a 16 1/2" barrel?
