prairie dog bolt gun recomendation

Tarvis: were you able to straighten out the trigger problem? was it just lack of maintenence by the previous owner? Maybe the chamber was dirty like the trigger and that caused the extraction problems? I've seen plenty of that with M16's if the chamber isn't REALLY clean. How did the rifle do accuracy wise (preferably 300 yard results)?

I bought an as-new Ruger 77 Mk II light sporter in .223 that turned out to be a reliable sub-MOA critter. I installed a Timney trigger which made life easier.

On a couple of prairie dog hunts, I've had no trouble getting hits to 300 yards. Had to do a little wind doping and figure the holdover, but no big deal with that.
