Two considerations, if the safety needs to be 'off' to work the bolt AND Ruger M77 II triggers need replaced (in most cases). Just this season, the safety in 'off' to cycle the bolt emptying the chamber really made me think I would prefer a Winchester type three position safety for my son's rifles rather than what they have now (on/off) just for cycling the action with the rifle on safe.
I would go with a new MKII rifle purchase, drop in a Rifle Basix or other trigger, add optics, ready to go rifle.
