I have red pad, tang safety 77 in .338 WM. I was talking to a friend about it the other day and he responded, "...that would be a better rifle if it was a controlled round feed". Now I thought it was a controlled round feed....this guy is very sharp on his Winchester, Mauser and Remington...

You for sure scored Congrats!

I have an El Paso, Tx Weaver K-6 scope for sale. This scope is very clean with very clear glass. It has the aluminum end rings (not plastic). Fine crosshair I am sure it has been mounted, but other than light handling on the bells and the adjustment covers, this scope looks new. $85...

Either a Great 8 or a Government Target (6 7/8) would be a great find....good luck!

I snorted coffee out my nose when I read this.....TOO FUNNY 8)

Congrats on finding the Mag cyl for the old model...still selling the new model? I would keep em both...the LR cylander will be even easier and then you have one of each. COOLNESS

D A and others thanks for the info. I am looking at purchasing a MK I target Bull barrel. I am even thinking of selling one of my High Standards to funs some Ruger purchases. Maybe some MK I s 8)

Congrats on the gun...pics when you get it picked up please :) Reloading for 7RM is easy. My brother in laws '75 Ruger 77 in 7mm liked this bullet. https://www.sierrabullets.com/store/product.cfm/sn/1925/284-dia-7mm-160-gr-HPBT

I remember reading an article about a Kodial Bear guide, old guy who had maybe the most experienced Bear gun. He told the author that he had used a 30-06 early on, but sometimes that didn't kill the bear quickly, then he got a 375H&H and that was the end of slow killed bears. He was shooting...

This is the Super Speed 3 inch Magnum gun...a Winchester Heavy Duck 1957 manufacture. It is all original with the addition of an adhisive Vented Rib...if you want it back to original the rib will come right off...if you like the rib, it is solidly attached and shows no sign of loose areas. The...

I saw the medium barreled version in .280 about 2 years ago at a yard sale the guy would not come off $500 for a price and I wanted to give him $400 but I had non-buyers remorse that afternoon and was going to offer him $450...he had sold it for the $500 earlier in the day. So maybe that...

Cool..I think read a post that mentioned the modification to MK I was possible so that the MK II mags could be used...I couldn't find the post is that a doable project?

I have had Ruger MK IIs since 1990...I have owned and traded several of them...but I have never owned a MK I....aside from the magazine differences, what are the major differences? I notice that there are occasionally better deals on the MK I than on the MK II

A very nice gun and a treasure. Enjoy and shoot well

I always try to send new buyers looking for a solid Bolt gun to a Ruger 77 Tang Safety or a 77MKII. There are other rifles out there that are as good...but none better for the $$.
