Those look a lot like a rifle marketed by Mauser in the 90's. They called it a Mauser 99 but i think it was actually Voere. I had one in 300 Weatherby.

That's insane. I guess 7-08 boat paddles must be rare

From Ruger Forum.

I have looked for value of this particular rifle and can find nothing on it. I have never saw another one not even a picture of one on the internet. I have saw discussions on forums where people say ruger never made it and etc. They did make it because I own one. Gun is a ruger M77 MKII 7mm-08 stainless with zytel paddle stock Ultralite model 20" barrel. I have been told to put it in safe and not hunt with it because it was too valuable. Just wondering if anyone on here has ever saw one before.

The 20" bbl Lightweight is a rare bird.

Bought a lot of guns from that gun shop..

I bought a gently used Remington 700 Mountain Rifle in 280 Rem in 1987, shot my first deer with it that Fall. Thing fits me like a tailored suit, I wouldn't trade it for all the tea in China.

Hunted with a 1970 win model 770 in '06 this year. Haven't used it since Colorado in the mid '80's. Been using a '90 Rem 700mtn in 7-08 most of the last 30 yrs or my BAR in 7Rmag I got in '74 if stuff was bigger. I've got a '94 win model 70 classic featherweight in 7-08 I've never shot because I preferred the 700 but I think going forward in 2021 it will be my go to. I'm too old to warm up to black plastic & matte finished metal. I understand the appeal, I have enough kids & nephews to know that care and maintainance sucks for young people. Hell, I like the smell of Hoppes & Remoil(to name a few) and I ENJOY cleaning my guns. All the little marks bear witness to the adventure.

Now, compared to today's stuff, they are pretty nice


In inflation adjusted dollars, they were considerably more expensive than cheap rifles of today. I agree they were rather nice for what they were.

Those are some good looking rifles. It sure fun to see all those shiny rifles in the rack in the gun stores. I have Sako 25-06 I with for a long time. It has shiny wood and gloss blue. That sucker will shoot 3/4 groups all with Remington cor-Loks. I still hunt with from time to time.

I’m in the blued/walnut camp as well. I have a soft/sweet spot for a nice blued rifle with a wood stock. 700s, BARs, browning and Remington shotguns, I am just a sucker for. I also have a hard time looking past a nice 22 with a walnut stock..
