MDT is now making the LSS chassis to fit Rugers. I picked up one for the American Predator 6.5 creedmoor and one for the 77 MkII ultralite 204. They're also made for savage, rem, mossy and howa. I'm kinda liking them......

Re: new chassis
My question is about the M77 MKII reciever in that chassis.
If you look at the Scout series, Vs. a M77(MKII, Hawkeye) the floor of the reciever doesn't have "lips" on the scout. That way the magazines fit, whereas the Hawkeye needs them ground off. At least to work with the scout system.
Which mag system are you using, and did you have to grind off the lips??
...BTW, VERY nice looking!! I might hate you a little

I'm a firm believer in the theory that if it bleeds, I can kill it.

Re: new chassis
The only grinding I had to do on the 77 chassis was to file a center feed ramp on the action for the centerfeed MDT plastic mags to work. The rear of the plastic mags were notched out, rather than grind the action
