Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Ruger 77/44 and 77/357 rifles

I own the 77/.357, have owned the Marlin .44 and .357. Neither of the Marlins would hold a candle to the Ruger in terms of accuracy.

The little Ruger is just has handy as the Marlins. It is more user friendly, with a scope mounted.

I do a lot of walk around hunting and the .357 is great for close range work.

I've got a couple box blinds in East Tx. that are in thick growth and both have short 75-80 yard shooting lanes. The 158 grain jacketed flat points are deadly on porkers and small deer at these ranges.
