i have the mk77 in .270 with a VX-1 scope
at a 100yds. i can cover 4 shots with a quarter, and 3 of them cut the same hole with a "clover" shape, and the 4th is usually just slightly off, but the barrell is warming up by then and im probally pulling th shot of a lil
all i know is its a superb deer rifle, very accurate, and i dont know why so many people bash it about being unnaccurate because mine is the exact opposite...... but then again with ruger i have heard you either have a tack driver or it wont shoot a pattern for anything
if thats true guess i got lucky
