Hi all
I had such a great time in Tulsa with my display, I’m exploring the possibility of putting together a Model 77 display for Fall, Tulsa 2025. They have always been my “go to” rifle and of course I have a few. Trying to see if there would be any chance if finding any m77 display worthy rifles, any caliber for sale preferably non prefix
Thanks Kenny Wendland

Finally, something we won't be competing for against each other. I only have one tang safety Ruger and I'm content to keep it that way. I will keep you in mind if anything comes across my radar.

Ken, I own a tang safety M77 in .300 Win. Mag. I have taken 3 Elk in New Mexico with it and and now my college age grandson wants to keep it for his own elk hunt some day! It wears a Leupold LPS scope that was offered in the late 1980s. It is a 30mm tube, 3.5 to 10 variable power and a 45mm objective. Great rugged scope that does well in low light. Sorry I cannot help you, but my grandson has first dibs on this quality rig. Brass Frame/Lee E. I set up next to you in Tulsa.

Oh nice…Great hunting in NM, I was born and raised! Tulsa was a great time! Nice meeting all the Ruger guys and seeing so many rare Rugers. That is kind of why I am trying to go down the Model 77 road. My first deer was taken with a model 77 270 and the number of Northern NM coyotes taken with my 200 th year 22-250 would make PETA cry.
Always loved a model 77…. don’t think they get the notoriety they deserve.
Have a great Thanksgiving!
