New Barrel
What is the formula for breaking in a new rifle? I've heared to shoot once and clean, and repeat over and over, any suggestions? The gun is a ruger 77 MII in 220 swift

Hart, Shilen, Douglas, Lilja are the barrels to choose from. Probably a couple more that I didn't list. To rebarrel with a select match barrel and get it done right you're going to spend 5-550 bucks. If you are going to rebarrel go with a match grade barrel! Some people have been known to ask, "Does Remington make barrels?" Little humor there! GHD 0 -
GHD, as always, is spot on. There are so many aftermarket stainless match barrel companies, you could fill a book with them. Just get a match grade, select stainless, barrel. Have it chambered and threaded, floated by a reputable gunsmith with benchrest rifle building experience, and you will have probably one of the most accurate rifles you have ever shot.
also research:
Pac-Nor barrels
Kreiger barrels
A great rifle with a junk scope,....is junk.0 -
Your friendly local gun mechanic charges just as much to install a 50 dollar barrel as he does to install a 250 dollar one, so the cost difference in the barrel itself becomes small. Besides, human nature will cause him to do his best work on a "top name" tube as opposed to a quick and dirty job with a "el-cheapo" barrel
Some guys like a mag full of lead, I still prefer one round to the head.0 -
GD is on-target, as usual, but could have had a better group if he'd added the names of "Boots" Obermeyer (Obermeyer Rifle Barrels, 23122 60th Street, Bristol, WI 53104, (262) 843-3537) and Krieger (http://www.kriegerbarrels.com). These boys will - without doubt - give you the most bang for your buck. 0
