I have a Ruger M77 Mk II chambered in .223 rem. Serial# indicates it was manufactured in 1989. I bought it 6 years ago used and have only fired it about 20x in that time but it shoots well at the 100 yd line. Had a potential buyer looking it over, and he thought the barrel was not the original but a Hawkeye barrel. He thought the barrel too short and too thin. The barrel measures 19.25" and .500" at the muzzle, OAL is 42". The barrel is stamped as a Sturm Ruger barrel. Anyone have an opinion? I sent the same question to Ruger for their feedback
