Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Ruger 77/22 series is well regarded for adapting the durable, controlled-feed bolt action of Ruger’s centerfire M77 rifles into a refined rimfire platform. While originally designed around the .22 LR, the 77/22 action proved versatile enough to chamber higher-performance cartridges such as the .22 Hornet, as seen with this example. The design incorporates a two-lug bolt that cycles smoothly and locks up consistently, contributing to the rifle’s reputation for reliability and accuracy. Its flush-fitting rotary magazine—one of the defining features of the platform—maintains clean lines and excellent handling without the interference of a protruding magazine. Combined with Ruger’s cold hammer-forged barrels and solid stock construction, the 77/22 earned a reputation as a high-quality small-game, varmint, and precision rimfire rifle.

This particular 77/22 chambered in .22 Hornet offers notable performance advantages, delivering higher velocity and extended effective range compared to standard rimfire cartridges. The 20" blued barrel paired with a checkered walnut pistol-grip stock gives the rifle a classic sporting appearance, while the integral scope bases allow shooters to easily mount optics for precise field or bench use. In practice, rifles of this configuration are appreciated for their balance, light recoil, and consistent accuracy—qualities that make them effective for small-varmint hunting and enjoyable for precision target shooting. The combination of Ruger’s robust engineering and the inherently efficient .22 Hornet cartridge makes this model a desirable choice for shooters seeking a refined, reliable bolt-action in a classic small-bore caliber.
