I have one in 270, and now it is a very accurate rifle. First to go was the terrible trigger-replaced it with a Timney and my groups improved greatly. IMO, the Timney is a must with a Mk II Ruger, unfortunate, as the triggers in the tang safety models were great bone stock. The factory stock is not very comfortable for me, so I switched to a B&C stock, which helped accuracy. Again, the old tang safety models are much more comfortable than the new guns. I would get rid of it since it is not as comfortable as some, but can't bring myself to because it is so accurate with my favorite 270 loads.
