re-barrel?
I inherited a Ruger M77 in 25-06 topped with a Leupold VX3 that would hit somewhere in a 4 foot circle. I cleaned the copper out of the barrel, Korth repaired the scope, now down to a 2 foot group. I free floated the barrel, repaired the crack in the wrist and had the action bedded. Now a 1 foot group. I lapped the rings, now at 6". My question is since I know little about Rugers, is it worth putting a new barrel on it or do I buy another since I now want a 25-06?
