Took my dads Ruger M77 .270 out this afternoon to make sure it was still sighted in. Dads always been a "Its close enough" kinda guy, so I thought I would double check it for him. After a good barrel cleaning I fired 3 shots at 130 yards. Not only was it on....it was ON!!!
Remington 130gr. CorLokts into 1" off a makeshift rest.
I'm by no means a benchrest shooter, but I was shocked at the accuracy! Haven't even tried any other loads out of it.
I'm going to have a custom rifle built starting next year, and I'm starting to second guess my decision of a Rem. 700 action.
Is this pretty normal to expect from a M77?
