Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Old Rugers are big money now

I thought that on first glance, but other photos are posted in the single shot forum. Still a neat rifle, though.

Crazy. Glad I have the ones I have, thank goodness

I have an old Ruger .44 Mag Carbine. Saw one for sale recently in a gun shop and thought the price was a misprint - It wasn't!!!

They are fun and a reduced load can turn one into a nifty deer rifle.

I've got a fair number of 77 Mk 2s, in various chamberings...

Them and my old Model 70s from the 80s and 90s, aren't going anywhere else, any time soon.

Kinda " the nicest" to me, before low cost guns became the big fad.

I've purchased and use some of them and really enjoy them, as they are good shooters and not so finicky.

But they still aren't as well made as the older Ruger 77s and Model 70s I have in the gun cabinet.

Yep. All part of the American consumer's race to the bottom for cheap factory-to-landfill junk. Model 70s are some of the last great production rifles. You get what you pay for.

It will bring big bucks. The CZ 550 9,3x62 with Mannlicher stock clunkers (heavy balance-less crowbar) bring $1500+. This Ruger is much nicer rifle it should cost considerably more. Ruger also made nice Hawkeye Africans in .375 and .416 Mags, nice handling mass-produced rifles.

These Rugers are like gold!

Another one! I know it’s a RLS but still!

That’s a nice Hollow Bolt with sights

Yes sir

I bought a Ruger MK II Varmint with the wide forearm laminated stock chambered in 204 Ruger, it came with a throwaway scope and I paid $1100 for it.
I might have overpaid for it but had to have it

The only Ruger I want. And can’t find. Is a Ruger 30/06 Express rifle. God I want one!!

Never saw Rutgers as high end although compared to offerings today they are
Just gave a good friend my tang safety 220 swift
He was stoked I have nicer rifles I prefer

The hardest kicking #1 of all time, is the 450 Nitro weighing in at a svelte 7.5 pounds. Touch off a 500gr bullet at 2400fps sorts the men from the boys.
There were only 250 made.

I had one of those, but foolishly sold it in pursuit of some other notion. Dandy little rifle, and I fiddled the trigger into a very good one using some internet info. One of my dumber deals for certain, although the new one outshoots it by a good bit.

I would rather have Winchedter Model 70 Featherweight.

Had 1 paid $400 shot 40 rds thru it and sent it down the road. Miserable bastard out of hell in the recoil dept...mb

I dropped my the "LGS" today to find stainless/walnut Ruger M77's in 308 Win (20") and 30-06 (22"). Both were priced at a grand. They are the first M77's I have seen in a bit.

I was talking to a friend of mine tonight and said he has a Ruger 77 tang safety NIB in 35 Whelan and was wondering what it's worth.
He also has a NIB Remington 700 Classic in 35 Whelan he wants to sell. Any ideas on a price?
