    77/22 rifle prices

    Makes me rethink my plans for the NIB 77/22 LR with green inserts that's been hidden in my closet for decades.

    Hawkeye Action

    New Hawkeye blued long action, standard bolt face, with bottom metal and trigger. 650 plus the ride to your FFL

    77 MK II 270 Boat Paddle

    It has been my loaner rifle. Less than 100 rounds through it. 1" rings included. 1500 plus the ride to your FFL

    I have one NIB that I'd part with.

    Lightweight .22 rifle recommendations.

    At the turn of the 20th century, the epitome of light weight .22 rifles was created. Behold Remington No. 6. This particular example was built in 1906 and has been my trapline and woods rifle for decades. For those not familiar, it is a takedown single shot, swinging block action, exposed...

    My 1st RUGER Handgun 1961.....

    My father's buddy bought one at the PX in '60 and I grew up hearing exploits of Han's prowess with it. When Ruger reintroduced the Bearcat in '93 I had one ordered in ASAP. After a bit of correspondence with Hans, I had it tuned and dialed in. The Bearcat has been my near constant companion since.

    Peep sight for a Mark II?

    I put a large aperture rear sight and a white bead front on my LCRx 3. It has significantly increased the range which everyone who shoots it can make accurate hits on the 10" plate. Contrary to what others on here are saying, you don't need a peep sight to be close to your eye to work. You...

    RAR 17 HMR owners. What ammo do you find best?

    I bought 2 RAR 17's for my kids. One shot MOA out of the box and one was 2+MOA. The issue was stock warpage putting pressure on the barrel. I trimmed the plastic away, bedded an aluminum arrow shaft in the forend with Devcon, cleaned, de-greased and re-lubed the bolt and trigger and adjusted the...

    Ruger 77/357 range limitations for varmints and whitetail?

    Thus lies the difference between theoretical knowledge and actual experience. I did some extensive field testing at work with my 35 Rem and 180 gr hard cast Keith style bullets. 300 deer at ranges from 8 to 200 yards were part of my research. Based on that research, and comparing numbers, there...

    Ruger 77/357 range limitations for varmints and whitetail?

    My Marlin 336 runs 180 grain loads at just over 2000 FPS. With a 100 yard zero it drops about 14" at 200 yards with an impact velocity of about 1325 FPS, which I consider the upper limit of its capabilities. My Ruger 77/357 runs 180 grain loads at just under 1900 FPS. With a 100 yard zero it...
