Isn't ROBAR in your area? IIRC, they do gunsmithing, as well as coatings and custom rifles.

Sad to say, but sometimes, it costs more money to make an inferior product work like one which was more expensive initially. Personally, I would sell the Ruger and use the money towards a Remington, or a Winchester.

I agree with inferior product and normally would get a Rem short heavy barrel for the purpose it was intended for. Under normal circumstances would sell it too. Thing is I have a sensitive wife, and it was a Christmas present from her.

I'll definitely check out ROBAR when back in civilized country, hopefully by spring 2012. Right now still in the middle of the Helena National Forest, Montana. Helena is an hour away on a good day. Nice bladder emptying ride though (Satellite internet)

Thank you for your respected input Reaper.


Dusty: 60's aren't bad, that was my first non-air rifle.
