[QUOTE="huntinkev, post: 5065599, member: 3653"] I mentioned it in the post about going on an elk hunt. My ruger M77 7mm mag has had accuracy issues over last several years. I put a new scope on it several years ago and that didn't fix it. I've just put it up and haven't even shot it in several years. I got it out looking closely at it tonight and I noticed that the barrel is tight against one side of the foreend and has gap on the other. Maybe this is contributing to my accuracy issues? What you think? I've been reading on floating the barrel on some Ruger forums. A lot of what I've seen says to bed 1-1/2" of barrel and float the rest. I'm not sure, I may take it to gunsmith.
