Some of the Rugers need a bit of 'smithing. The stainless ones have good barrels, they just need to be set back, re-chambered and have the bolt shimmed to take out the slop. The blue ones seem a bit hit-or-miss on the barrels.

I'm a Ruger fan but I sold my semi-custom K-Hornet because the magazine would not allow plastic tipped bullets to fit/feed (too long). I built a Remmy Model 7 221FB instead and bought a Contender K-Hornet barrel. Folks swear by the CZ Hornets which don't seem to have similar magazine problems and respond well to a K-reamer.
