Ruger M77 RL (Ultralight) - 09/01/19
I just traded for my second M77 MarkII Ultralight. My first was a walnut/blued model in 223Rem, this one is a stainless/skeleton stock in 270Win. Does anyone know any production numbers on the ultralight versions of the M77? Or percentage compared to the standard sporter models? I've only put my hands on 3 of them in my life and I own two of those. The third was an walnut/blued RLS 30-06 with iron sights and an 18.5 inch barrel. I like compact, but that just seemed to be too much of a good thing when chambered in 30-06. The shop also wanted $900 for it which I thought was too much.
Also, I know the early boat paddle stocks came with green inserts. Did Ruger every produce any other factory models with different inserts? The one I just got has wood inserts. I figure they are aftermarket, but thought I would ask to be sure.
