Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Ruger M77 Tang Safety in .300 Winchester Magnum is a classic American bolt-action rifle that blends traditional design with rugged performance. This early M77 model features a 27-inch blued barrel fitted with a flash hider, enhancing its capabilities for long-range shooting while reducing muzzle flash—particularly beneficial when firing high-powered magnum rounds. A checkered walnut stock, designed with input from master stockmaker Lenard Brownell, offers a firm, elegant grip and balances the rifle’s substantial weight. The mounted Primary Arms SLX 4-12x40 SFP scope adds modern precision to this vintage-inspired platform, making it an excellent choice for big game hunting and long-distance accuracy. The classic tang safety is easy to manipulate and a hallmark of the original M77 design.

Designed by Jim Sullivan and introduced in 1968, the M77 was Ruger’s answer to the demand for a strong, reliable hunting rifle during a time when Winchester had moved away from controlled-round feed. Although the Tang Safety model featured a push-feed bolt with an external claw extractor, it still maintained Mauser-like reliability and strength. The investment-cast receiver, a cost-effective innovation by Bill Ruger, was paired with third-party barrels, which led to some variability in accuracy but kept costs low for consumers. The angled action screw was a unique design choice that tightly secured the action to the stock, improving bedding and potentially enhancing accuracy. With its strong bolt, classic styling, and potent .300 Win. Mag. chambering, this Ruger M77 Tang Safety is a formidable rifle built for serious hunters and collectors alike.
