I really hate to sell this rifle but have to pay my co-pay for the wifes appendectomy. I bought this rifle from a member here less than a year ago and I am using his photos since I need a new SD card for my camera. The rifle is a Ruger Express M77 chambered in 30/06. The stock is circassian walnut. Barrel sports a quarter rib and express sights. There are a few tiny handling marks on the stock. Bluing is perfect. Factory scope rings are included. No scope included. The rifle is a real shooter. It puts five shots into 3/4" at 100 yards with 180gr Partitions. Price - $1200 shipped to your FFL. Sorry but only interested a sale and not looking for any trades. You can reach me via PM here or email at wberger70  hotmail.com ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v428/M1Tanker70/RugerRS30-061.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v428/M1Tanker70/RugerRS30-062.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v428/M1Tanker70/RugerRS30-063.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v428/M1Tanker70/RugerRS30-064.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v428/M1Tanker70/RugerRS30-065.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v428/M1Tanker70/RugerRS30-066.jpg)

Beautiful rifle for sure. Bump...
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

Nice rifle. This would be the perfect platform for a re-bore to 9.3X62.

I don't own a 30-06, this is tempting.
Bump for a very nice rifle.

Selling this rifle is one of those I know I am going to heavily regret down the road. But not much choice in the matter. You wont find a nicer or better shooting 30/06 out there without going full custom.

Bill's rifle is a rare beauty, just this side of a custom. He's also a top notch guy to deal with, so procede with confidence.

Question: I own a 375 H&H RSM. Great rifle but glad I own a horse if I want to hunt the back country. (It is HEAVY). I assume the Express and RSM are about the same rifle, so I wonder what does your's weigh in at ? I'd sure love to own it! Mine RSM is the top one: ![[Linked Image]](http://i1186.photobucket.com/albums/z377/rocketcity1/f383bd45.jpg)

You going to do it on layaway, OldDoucheLady1942?
I replace valve cover gaskets every 50K, if they don't need them sooner...

I weighed the rifle on an old postal scale and it came in right at 7 3/4 pounds. But it is an old scale and the weigh could be +/- an ounce either way.
The barrel measures 22" from muzzle to the face of the bolt.
