Bought a new looking but used 77/357 . This is a blued gun .
Trigger is a bit heavy at 6 lbs or so but fairly crisp.
Barrel looks ok , no obvious damage and has been thoroughly cleaned , crown looks good .
I have a Leopold Vx1 2-7 that has worked well on other guns mounted solid .
I have played with the stock screw , everything from loose to tight .
I have tried several different factory loads and several hand loads , both lead bullets , plated and jacketed in both 38 and 357 mag.
Across a firm rest the best it does is about 6 or 7 inches at 25 yards for a 5 shot group . I am no newbie to rifles but have had other good shooters give it a try with about the same results.
WTH? Ruger disappoints me!
Any known problems with this gun ? Serial makes it a 2013 year by Rugers web site
