Re: Ruger RSM 77 .375

In reply to:

As for the ejection, that's easy. It's got to be the ejector spring being a bit weak or perhaps it's gummed up with crud or goo. As a matter of course clean out that slot in the action that it moves within, also the slot in the bolt that it moves within (check these areas for any burrs that might be causing the grief also)... Change the spring if necessary and I'd wager you'll be in business.

Yep! I have two of the RSMs; one in .375 H&H and the other in .416 Rigby. I had my gunsmith go over both. Timney triggers, smooth/polish actions, tune extractors, lap lugs, glass bed, etc. He did find that the ejector slot and ejector on both rifles were a little rough (slight burrs as 458RugerNo1 mentions). He polished both. Both feed and eject just fine now. Most any production gun can use a little going over.
