I have Questions. - 12/24/19 12:59 AM
I have Ruger 77 Hawkeye in 6.8 SPC that I can't seem to get to shoot well. Swapped scopes, dropped it in a McMillan stock I had for another short action Ruger I sold. Tried different ammo. Rifle currently has a 16" pencil barrel. I'm considering a new barrel to get accuracy and allow me to shoot suppressed.
Stock will take a medium sporter barrel. I thinking either going 16" threaded 6.8 SPC or 18" threaded 224 Valkyrie.
I've never had a barrel changed out. How do I start? Who do do recommend to perform such a delicate procedure? What is the process?
I know nothing.
