I have a Ruger M77 Mark II in .270 that I love and has lots of sentimental value. The best I can do with it is 1.5” 5-shot groups at 100 yards using 130gr Fusion and Core Lokt. I’ve tried premium loads and nothing works better. As far as I’m concerned that’s good enough for hunting over feeders in Texas, but I want to hunt the West going forward, and anticipate needing to get proficient to 300-400.
Is it possible for a gunsmith to do enough accurizing work to make this rifle sing? Or if I want to hunt elk and mulies in CO and NM, should I just spring for a dedicated rifle for that?
