I have never heard of that happening on any new rifle, let alone a Ruger M77. That is not an over pressure situation, but could be someone at the plant over torqued the barrel. Or, you could be right on the cheap steel. Good luck getting it replaced. I wouldn't trust a re-barrel from the factory.I have been shooting bolt action rifles Almost every day since I was 7 years old, not counting 10 years in the us army and never had an issue, but the last 4 years I have had 2 brand new rifles totally fail on me. Thanks to Chinese steel.
