Ruger 77/22 Platform
in the question for building a 17 Ackley Hornet, I was also wondering if a 77/77 could be rechambered for a 17 Ackley Hornet...

order a bolt for the 22 Hornet from Ruger, if it will work in that receiver
and then the magazine, although in the real world, I'd like to make this a single shot rifle...

any experiences to share would be appreciated..

thanks,
seafire

A reporter did a human-interest piece on the Texas Rangers. The reporter recognized the Colt Model 1911 the Ranger was carrying and asked him "Why do you carry a 45?" The Ranger responded, "Because they don't make a 46."

My experience with the 77/22 platform is to replace it with the CZ platform (both rim and centerfire).

Mine just had too many things wrong with it to make it worthwhile.

About the only bolt Ruger will sell you is a "stock" bolt.

It would be less frustrating to sell the rimfire 77/22 and get yourself the Hornet 77/22 to build on.
