Left handed Ruger M77 blued/walnut chambered in 7mm Rem mag.

I traded into this gun locally and really ought to sell it before I get attached to it. I have not shot it, so cannot tell you anything about accuracy, but I see nothing about the gun (crown, barrel, bolt lugs, etc.) that lead me to expect any accuracy issues.

The stock has not been cut or altered, and has 13 1/2" LOP.

Some handling marks on the RH side and the pistol grip as shown in pictures below.

Sorry the above photo is out of focus; it did not look so bad until I saw it on a large screen.

The conditions issues in the metal work are some light handling marks on the floorplate

and some scratches on the barrel right at the forend tip. 24" barrel.

All of the marks in the wood could be made less visible with some oil and the barrel with hot blue, which would make the gun easier to sell on the basis of photos on the internet but that is not how I roll.

All in all this is perfectly functional rifle in a versatile cartridge. I know that belted cases are passe these days, but there are few game animals in North America for which this gun is not completely adequate.
