Welcome from Utah. New here also.

Hello Threespears. Looked you up you are not joking. Just jump in the river short swim you are in Idaho.

Yes I am leaning that way also. The only recessed crown is the 243 Varmint I have ever seen on a m77. it does appear to be original pre safety warning barrel. Was hoping someone for sure knows. I guess the original crown could have been bad although if guy just wanted shorter seems like a lot of...

Hello you are not the Tbone I bought a leupold for silhouette and an Anshutz stock from are you?

Not new to Rugers - Have or have had 10/22's Ruger Mini 14 -Single six and 357 Revolvers LCP 9mm- I have sold most of mark-2 rifles except one. From Top 1969 Ruger m77 308 flat bolt-Leupold Compact 1.75-6- Strange 20 in barrel?-1971 RS 30-06 Hollow bolt-1978-243 -V heavy barrel 6-24 High...

I just saw a post where someone got the overtravel set screw part sent to them by Ruger. I do not think it is a part you can just order they have to look at serial to keep track of it being done. Or there are aftermarket triggers some need a little wood removed to change in tang models.

I think if you call Ruger they send you what you need now. None of my Tangers have the overtravel change I am changing the sears and adjusting safely. Pretty sure it is just like Remington walker triggers all the problems are people adjusting them that do not know what they are doing.

Barrel on Ruger was 20 in. Measured with cleaning rod on closed chamber on right. Barrel on left was 280 Rem stainless 700 mountain rifle 22 In Barrel. Below pictures are on top 1969 308 Ruger flat bolt 20 in barrel - On Bottom 1971 30-06 RS Hollow Bolt.22 In. barrel.

I have a 1969 Ruger m77 flat bolt 308 that has a short 19 or 20 in barrel that has a recessed muzzle crown very similar to my Rem 700 mountain rifle. Was this ever done at factory in that early of a time or done by a gunsmith ?, Got from original owner who was quite an older gentleman said not...

No problem, You know you have a nice early 1972 Ruger M77 with ST round top and sights and it is not the most common find either. I was very happy to find my 71 hollow bolt with sights in like new condition locally. The ST or Round Top action uses the same bases and has the same contour as the...

Dang that is in nice condition!. Made before 1973 so a Douglas barrel. Is that an St round top scope mounts and sights?. I have the 1971 30-06 with hollow bolt and sights but not an ST has regular RS integrated Ruger scope rings. I just received a rifle basics trigger sear 50.00 for tang safety...

I have that same 1.75x6 scope on my 69 -308 m77 it is the short compact version later they made it in longer version for LA rifles just barely fits on a short action and it's a lightweight scope. Supposed to be one of the toughest Leupolds out there. Highly desired for dangerous game as well.
