In scope swapping on a MkII 7 mag with medium 1" rings; it seems a 40mm is OK , but a 44mm is too large and needs high rings. I dug thru some stuff and found conversion bases to Weaver rings. I put the base convesion on with medium Weaver rings and everything is a go. If I have Low rings I...

I have a new to me 77 MkII in 338 WM. The scope I want to run is a 30mm tube with a 50mm objective. It looks like it takes 2 different ring heights. Leupold shows a set for the M77, but it doesn't specify if they are 2 different heights. Is the tang Safety model different or the same as far as...

Seems my previous post is not getting approval from moderators. It is a 157 prefix S/N. The current wood grips shrunk and I am for replacements. I can email a pic to your address, if you send it to me.

It is a 157 series Security six. The wood on these has shrunk quite a bit. Seems I don't know how to post pix here. I can send it as an email

After my good friend's death, I am helping the widow sell his goods. Finding a value for a MkII is proving difficult as I can only find tang safety 77s on GB and here. She has a 7 RM and a 338 WM. Both blued and walnut. I don't know if there were any limited runs of these that I need to know...

Is your buddy still looking to rebore?? I'll trade you a heavy 6mm Rem barrel for the heavy 280 barrel (as long as your throat/bore is good). JES can rebore a 6mm just as easy as a 7mm.

I have none in my collection, but would like to put one in. I just have a hard time getting past the man licker pronunciation.

Monday bump

You're selling it in the wrong place!!! An original model Vaquero will go for bigger $$ out here. The new models are fine for SASS, but the original models are used by hunters/fisherman for grizzly protection. Your gun will sell 100 miles out any side of Yellowstone or Glacier National Parks...

I'm new here, but can provide references from other sites. I acquired these in an estate sale and would like to get them to somebody that would appreciate them. I trade too if you have stuff for trade. Ruger 77 barrel in 6mm Rem. 24”, blued, varmint contour. $75 Hogue Overmold stock for...
