[QUOTE="comfisherman, post: 2950896, member: 8394"] The 77 is essentially a full size action as well, so it's not exactly a svelte little scaled down rimfire action. My 77s were from the days when we didn't have the option of the 700 foot print. While they are tuned exactly how I've been accustomed, they do have features not as popular in current times. The ring situation isn't as easy as 700 round round clones. And while the triggers are good, the options to get exactly what you want on a 700 platform are much greater. Stock situation is the same. Mine wear the now unavailable mcmillan, while I like the shape it would be nice to have an exact clone of my hunting rifles. Admittedly for hunting the flush mag on the 77 wins every time for me. If someone ever makes a flush 5 round option for the 700/40x clones I'll probably have some dusty 77s in the safe. For the op request, most of the 77/22 rifles are running around a grand. Assuming a Boyd's stock, trigger kit, and Lilja or shilen barrel... you'll be over budget. [/QUOTE]
