i would say this may had been operator error, I run a Ruger hawkeye ftw 6.5 creedmoor, the mounts are milled. I guess i never got the rings completely secured after i cleaned it after all that rain we had a couple of weekends ago. Nevertheless this one will eat at me for the rest of the week. I did put a picatinny rail on a savage 110 i have and ill say i dont hate it. I know ruger makes a picatiinny style that is milled to the 77 rings but like i said ill chalk this up as an operator error. not my first deer i missed and probably wont be my last but it was my first at 20-25 yards with the scope on the bullseye.
