Gets My Vote

Evan03,

I got my M77MKII 24" Mag. conture Barrel .25-06, 6 or 7 years ago. Its got a blued barrel and walnut stock also. Mine has been bedded and free floated. I went and changed the trigger to a Timney, and it now has a 1 1/2 pound let-off. I put a Leupold 3x9x40 Vari-X II on it and it now has a set of low rings instead of the standard mid hight rings.

Best 3 shot group to date is 0.118", and it will consistantly group under 1/2" and most of the time under 3/8". It will also group under 1 1/2" at 200 yrds. and if I do my part will put 3 under 3/4" at that distance.

I can go to the range everyday or once every couple of months and the first round from a cold barrel at 100 yrds is going to print 2 3/4"high 1/8" right every time.

I still want to put a steel floor plate on it someday but I don't think there is anything else that will make it better.

I really like the .25-06 cal. and even though I've thought alot about getting other calibers and rifles, I always come back to thinking why change what works for me.

Just my $2.00 worth. (yes $2.00, inflation you know.)
