Does it have the wood pieces on parts of the stock?

I don’t know what it is, but something about that ugly thing turns me on…lol
I enjoy shooting something with some wallop. ABolt 1 338WM being my favourite, but kicks more than my old BSA Emperor 458 with factory ported barrel.

If you own one you have to reload with the price of a box of ammo. $85-125 a box. but they do shoot over $10 worth of powder at todays prices per box reloading and another $1 for a bullet.

No Jake. I never bought the inserts. I would now though if any were to be had.

That fingerprint on the barrel is just that. wiped right off with hoppes. The iron sight is original ruger. When I ordered it I paid extra for them. Figured on a backwoods hunt if I manage to damage the scope I could take it off and still be hunting. Have not shot them since I first got the rifle but I could hit with them just fine.

Since I got the 300 PRC the RUM sits in the safe. It shoots relatively inexpensive factory ammo as well as any rifle I own and with the suppressor on has practically no felt recoil.

Looks interesting but may be during youth turkey season. I will have to check.


I had a Ruger m77 just like yours in 270. It was my first center-fire rifle being IN was a slug gun state untill fairy recently. It was the first thing I ever hand loaded for and my first load and first group out of that rifle was 3/8 of an inch I couldn't believe it. But I traded it off for a log splitter after a while. I figured I was going to get in trouble with it if I keep it and I could use the log splitter. When I was younger I had a hard time not shoot deer with every gun I had and since it was not a legal deer gun in IN and I was young broke and not likely to hunt out of state I traded it off. It was a great gun and I loved the controlled round feeding.
