yeah i had on and traded it off...the only ones i have seen were the tang safety model

they also come in 250-3000 savage and .243 winchester if you can find one

I have also seen 22-250 but wanted to 250 savage more

250 savage is on gunbroker now for $1500

I don't believe they offered one unless one of the Limited runs through Lipsey's which would be a Stainless Walnut and the newer version
which they made 3-4 calibers one being .257 Roberts which I also have and maybe 250 Savage?

But I do have a NIB Unfired 7x57, Red Pad, Tang Safety available but it will be much higher than the 250 Savage listed on GB.

yeah they did offer it in the 77 with a tang safety but this was 30 years ago and i had one

I wouldn't doubt the possibility of 7mm08 in a 77 model but the RSI (Mannlicer) had limited calibers.

I know they offered a "production" RSI in 243, 7x57, and 308 in a short action and 270 and 30/06 in a long action.

They have a stainless 7-08 RSI limited addition, I've had one in my hand and didn't buy, Wish I had

Lipsey's Limited Editions release of Ruger RSI's;

2006 257 Roberts brushed stainless 253 made
2008 7mm-08 brushed stainless 260 made
2008 6.5X55mm brushed stainless 285 made
2009 250 Savage brushed stainless 248 made
2011 7X57mm brushed stainless 250 made
2011 308 Winchester brushed stainless 250 made
2012 250 Savage with matte stainless 98 made
2014 30-06 with matte stainless 250 made
2017 275 Rigby brushed stainless 250 made

Also between 2012 and 2014 539 K77/22RSI 22LR in brushed stainless.

well i guess you can believe what you want .....

i also have in a 77 ultra light tang model in 7mm-08 with a laminated stock and black for end also a limited model

Not doubting you especially when you say "you had one" but some models had small runs to see product/public acceptance
before they went into a full production run.

Just makes the price tag go higher ........

I have all the RSI tang safety except 30-06. 223 22-250 243 7mm08 308 7x57 and 270. All walnut and all tang safety. I also have a 77 RLDZ which is laminated light weight in 7mmO8

thanks just bought a 7-08

There were 2 different non-cataloged runs of tang safety blued and walnut short action Ruger 77 RSIs in 7mm-08.

There was 1 non-cataloged run of tang safety blued and walnut long action Ruger 77 RSIs in 7x57.

Cataloged tang safety blued and walnut 77 RSIs were 22-250, 243, 250, and 308 in the short action and 270 and 30-06 in the long action.

I had one of the 7mm-08 77 RSIs, #772-302xx, and still have one of the 7x57 RSIs, #770-828xx.

I have been told, but have not confirmed, that the 2 runs in 7mm-08 had different ROTs.

You have a tang safety blued and walnut 77 RSI in 223?

I've never heard of that configuration, heck, I didn't know that Ruger ever made a tang safety 77 in 223 in any configuration, I thought that all of the 223s were Mark2s.

I’ve not seen a factory one. I built one for my wife out of an early 243.
She shot everything from Florida hogs to Alaska moose with it.
Might be your best option to rebarrel one.
Free bump..

FOUND ONE!
