So the switch to the MKII safety from the Tang safety versions was really the only changes in the M77 lineups over the years? And the triggers.

DrFhuqktard,
The advent of CRF,integral scope bases and multiple triggers,in both single and two stage,along with the introduction of Stainless Steel,if only for starters. Hint.

Fhuqking LAUGHING!........... Hey butthead integral bases were available and common on Tangers, he mentioned triggers and unlike you we don't all soak our rifles every time we catch a fish so stainless is not that big of a deal to us. CRF yes there is a tangible difference.

The other major change was Ruger ending Wilson contract barrels and began producing their own hammer forged barrels shorty after the introduction of the MKII, around 1991 IIRC.

I know that, Larry. My question, again, is this: did you say or mean to imply that M77s prior to in introduction of the Hawkeye (AKA tangers) did not have integrated scope bases? Come on, Larry, let’s have an adult conversation without the name calling and childish gibberish. I know you can do it!

The original tangers had integral bases and Ruger rings. The Round Top came out later. GD

Imagine that! This ranks up there with the time you and your magnificent vocabulary tried to tell me that “reinforce” was not a word! But I’m quite sure you will not admit that either Have a nice day, Larry. And please keep me in mind if you ever should decide to try having an adult conversation.

How many action lengths did the tangers have? Was the action the same for a 6mm Remington and a 308 or was there a middle size action. I special ordered a tanger in HS with a round top because I didn't care for the Ruger rings. I wished later I had ordered it without sights but I was a kid and thought my iron sights would save the day if my scope died. I also wished I had ordered a 280 and not the 270 I went with.

Two action lengths. The 6mm was in the short action. The short action was out for some time before the long action. I can't remember how many years it was until they changed from the funny little bolt handle. Ruger fans, and there were a lot of them, often exaggerated the capabilities of the 77's. GD

GD Short action from late 1968 thru 1969, then long action introduced in 1970. Flatbolt SA up into 1973, and LA flatbolts from 1970 into 1973 with the rare transition hollowbolt thrown in. By 1974, its the now common roundbolt.

I remember that one could get a M77 tang safety in either round top or integral scope base top. I believe that was in the early 70s. I have a M77R tanger with the integral scope base in .280. After I bedded the action and floated the barrel it became a real good shooter. And, yes, when they first came out they were only available in a short action.

Larry, if you can’t act like an adult, the least you can do is try to understand facts. Listen carefully to this fact:
I HAVE two tangers which have integrated scope mounts. Hence they do exist. I know that’s hard for you to grasp. But if you try REALLY hard…
