I got a used Ruger 77/44 a while ago, and it hasn't been working too well so far, but had that glimer of promise that you wonder is the light at the end of the tunnel, or the train light coming.. I found a bump in the casting where the scope mounts, and fixed that. No wonder it wouldn't shoot well with the mount shooting loose all the time. Then the trigger, better now, and that magazine release that required a gorilla with strong nails to operate. Little by little, here, and there, not too much here, and not too much there these things come together, and are a great way to get to know our guns better, and spend some enjoyable time uf we look at it from the right perspective. The magazine on these rotary magazine Rugers are short too, but I think it will work fine with the 200 gr rn I have, and the Lyman 429215's that are ready to go. Hmm, wonder if Lee makes a .44 version of that 358-158 RFN that works so well........ something more to check out.
Well, Sunday ramblings, and wishing you all are having a pleasant day too.
