RE: Ruger M77 Mark II compact or Browning A-bolt compact in 7m-08?
I agree with popeye, the ruger compact is way to small a rifle for a larger man. Ruger makes an ultra light that comes in all weather with a 20" barrel. I also have a browning micro medallian in 7mm08, that is an awesome rifle. I think that the browning micro is perfectly balanced, but the ruger looks like a great combo as well.
