Any body shooting the Ruger 77/50.  What are the pros and cons?

Bought the "Officer's Model."

Did not like the whacky bolt, the integral scope rings (for ML use), and the blowback. Was very glad to see it go.

I owned one for about one year and sold it after it cost me a big 12 point. It shot very accurate but was not reliable. The nipple was a little oversized and sometimes it would not fire. I purchase an Encore 209X50 and have never looked back. The Encore is the most consistent and accurate Ml I have ever owned. It will shoot 3 shot groups @ 100 yards that are all touching. Hope this helps you out. :wink:
