Both Jonathan and Peter seem to have mixed views on the Ruger. My two
penn'orth is that I owned only one, a Ruger 77/Mk2 VBZ varmint job in 22-250,
and I too had mixed feelings. It was very well fitted and finished, with a
particularly nice stainless barrel - very smooth rifling, better than the Rem
700 VS I had subsequently. I shot it enough to establish that it had great
accuracy potential - but the trigger was absolutely dreadful, which made it
useless as a varmint rifle. Ruger were unco-operative to the point of
obstructiveness when I sought their advice. I could only locate one
after-market trigger at the time, something obscure which I got at great
expense from Brownells, but it failed to offer significant improvement. Pity
- with a decent trigger like the Jewell on my Remington, I'd probably still
have that Ruger.
