Take a look at this. We were cutting threads on a Ruger 77/22, so while Travis was cutting, I was looking over the action. I put some grease on the lugs and locked up the bolt just to check how the lug interface looked. What I found was very disappointing. Granted, this is just a 22lr, but still... ruger should be ashamed of themselves for letting a rifle like this out the door. One lug has full contact, while the other barely has 1/4 contact. Not to mention the huge gouges in the bolt that look like some mongoloid attacked the lugs with a hand file. For a $650 rifle, this is completely unacceptable. Hopefully this rifle shoots, or else it might take some machine time to get it right. Ruger's quality has really been dropping in the last few years. Pretty disappointing to see. The 77/22 action needs to be updated to really be competitive in today's market. The magazine release needs to be integrated into a hanger that is attached to the action. This will allow for more stock options and a 10x easier bed job. Then they need to ditch that ridiculous proprietary mounting system and give us a round top or an integrated picatinny rail. Those two design changes would put the 77/22 at the top of its class in a repeating bolt-action 22lr.
