Just got my Ruger M77 Mk.II back from my friend. He refinished the stock, added an ebony tip, cross-bolt, sling swivels and a red pad!

Very nice! -------------------------------------------- Well, other than that Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play? | |||

Nice. I put NECG sights on mine. I also sent it back to Ruger to upgrade it with Hawkeye parts: LC-6 trigger, steel floorplate (logo) and new style stock (red pad and wraparound checkering). Now she's almost a twin to my 9.3x62 African. | |||

Jason, An attractive package your rifle. Despite some critical opinion I consider Ruger makes a very attractive & functional set of rifle sights, and the classic red pad is nice, too. Have fun with it. I'm pretty familiar with the potential of the 7x64 as I load for 2 Buddies that shoot this cartridge; it's a good one. Cheers, Number 10 | |||

Guess I don't have a gunsmith's eye. (Wonder if he's tried mediums?) _______________________ | |||

What's it matter if he's happy with it as-is? Very nice rifle.  Aut vincere aut mori | |||

That may be an option down the road. Jason Z Alberts “If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you." – Samuel Adams | |||

The Mk II trigger was OK, but the LC-6 trigger is incredible. I'll try to post pics of the stock and sights. | |||

Yes, Ruger hit a home run with the Hawkeye stock! Jason Z Alberts “If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you." – Samuel Adams | |||

That was too easy. You're supposed to drag this out to four or five pages!  Aut vincere aut mori | |||

Nice, nice rifle. IME, having tweaked a few, the Mark II trigger can be made into a fine trigger with little work. Same for the factory sights. I would throw an NECG sourdough blade up front and fit a fixed rear square notch blade (the CZ 527 Carbine works fine) zero and be done. Far more precise than a round bead IME. My old M77RS Whelen is so fitted and it just works. Curious to see how well the swivel design works for you. I have had a set for 10 years that were to go on my 9.3x62 FN but I have held out (still no studs...) after reading of folks havng problems with them unexpectedly "releasing". I have a set of matte low lightweight one piece S&K rings that would ice that cake.  | |||
