Nice! You gotta love finding "treasure" in local gun shops.

Ruger did a limited run m77 stainless 6.5x55 with an 18.5" barrel and a walnut full stock recently. They are very nice looking handy hunting rifle. I haven't seen too many for sale. And the ones I have have been around $1500.

I would love to know who made that stock.
I have a M96 that I really like, converted much the same way plus a Timney trigger but the stock on it is a hot mess.

Nice, I'd be awful tempted to put the leaf back on and run it open sighted.

Nice, looks like a professional build. Nice find!! Someone definitely spent a little time on it, specifically the stock. I would love to have another one identical to it in .35 Rem!
