I have never had any accuracy issues, i have a 280 Rem, 6mm, 25-06, and 223. The 223 i bought about 9 months ago and is one of my best shooting guns along with my 280. Both are MarkII stainless guns, the 25-06 and the 6mm I have had for years and are M77's before they changed the safety, they have the tang safety. Both of those are absolute tack drivers. Only problem I ever had with them was the 25-06, I shot the barrel out after many years of shooting targets and ground squirrels, sent it to Ruger, had it rebarreled and its as good as new now. I have been very happy with all of my Rugers, I have a bunch of there pistols, they make fine guns and stand behind there work 100%
