I'm thinking about getting a Ruger 77 in 7x57 for a pretty good price. I've heard the Ruger 77s in 7x57 can tend to be inaccurate, due to a long throat length. If this gun turns out to be inaccurate, is there much to having the barrel re-bored and rechambered to 8x57? Approx. what would it cost? Is it cheaper than having it rebarreled?
I'm actually thinking about getting two of them and having one converted to 8x57. I've been wanting a factory rifle in that caliber... just because. (I don't think I want the new Rem 700 Classic.)
Thanks for any help,
Steve
