I have a Ruger M77 Mark II in a .280 Rem. It is a very accurate gun with a good feel. The only problem that I have with it, is the action is very sticky. It feels like it is binding when I am closing or opening the action. I keep the gun well maintaned. The gun is about 14 years old and I am the original owner. I have shot other Rugers and their actions seem to flow as smooth as the Remington 700's. In fact, my little brother has a Mark II in a .25-06 with a medium weight barrel that is only two years old that has an extremely smooth action. I posted this in the bolt rifle forums, just wanted to see if anybody else had any problems.
