[QUOTE="Pokinfun, post: 2883027, member: 28113"] On an M77, I would check the torque of the front mounting bolt. If that bolt is not torqued correctly the gun will fire inconsistently. at the same time, I would check the torque scope mounts and screws. I guess, Ruger barrels like to be supported near the forward end of the stock. Therefore, try putting business cards between the end of the stock and the barrel to see if it helps with consistency. I would check the barrel crown and make sure you have not damaged it any. Lastly, have you measured the chamber to see if you are a proper amount of jump? I killed lots of deer over 20 years with a Ruger M77MKII, but I would not waste my money replacing the stock. The way they mount in the stock makes it difficult to get the most accurate rifle.
