[QUOTE="WackJob, post: 440433, member: 28108"] Since it (Ruger 7mm) is brand new from a FFL dealer .... i have assumed it to be a regular caliber & grade of their M77 line-up that's available anywhere... It was acquired 2 yrs ago from a local shop here in Adirondack region of N.Y. As the barrel is inscribed " 7mm REM SA ULTRA MAG " i'd have to assume that Sturm,Ruger & Co. inc. did infact manufacture it & this style for resale to public. I read that it had a free-float barrel but u'r correct, upon doing the 'paper-slide' test, it appears to be bedded on forearm of stock. Perhaps it's a freak/one-off production piece thats slipped thru Ruger's upper management hands into the general population....making it worth vastly more than my mere $695 asking price:-) I won't take the effort to reply about my butchering experiences regarding o6 kills vs smaller 30 cal weaponry, it's a futile discussion.... been-there, done- that ! I'm going to attempt to post pics of this M77,Mark II when i find the time to locate & operate 'photobucket' site properly. Thanks for feedback - - Slightly Wacked - [/QUOTE]
