I purchased a Ruger 77 Hawkeye Compact Mag. in 308 Winchester. It's been dropped from production,replaced by the American. I had problems with flyers
during the break in period,two shot touching each other at 100 yards and two shot touching each other but 3" down, Factory ammo,sand bags ,from the bench
with proper cooling time etc. Factory had me return the rifle and installed a new barrel. Problem solved shoots around 1" three shot groups at 100 yards.
They told me to tork the front bolt to 93 pounds. Question has anyone had this
advice and where do you find a tork wrench that registers 93 pounds?
I have not touched the stock bolts but maybe in the future I would check the bolt too make sure they are set to factory standard setting. Thanks for your comments
