This is an exceptional Ruger M77 RL Ultralight Bolt Rifle in .30-06 Springfield, manufactured by Sturm, Ruger & Co. in Southport, Connecticut, in 1986, as confirmed by the serial number 770-63064. Introduced in 1968, the Ruger M77 is renowned for its robust Mauser-style bolt action, controlled-round feed, and classic design, making it a favorite among hunters and collectors. The RL (Rifle Lightweight) Ultralight variant, produced in limited numbers, is particularly prized for its compact 20" barrel and reduced weight, ideal for carrying in the field. The .30-06 Springfield cartridge, a versatile and powerful round, has been a staple for big game hunting since its introduction in 1906, adding to the rifle’s appeal. The Mag-Na-Port modification, a factory or aftermarket porting system, reduces recoil, enhancing shooter comfort. The early tang safety, used on M77 rifles until the early 1990s, and the distinctive red recoil pad are hallmarks of this era, making this rifle a sought-after piece for Ruger enthusiasts. Its historical significance lies in Ruger’s commitment to blending traditional craftsmanship with modern manufacturing, creating a lightweight yet durable rifle for North American sportsmen.
This example is in excellent overall condition, showing minimal signs of use. The 20" barrel features a brilliant, bright bore, reflecting meticulous care. The American walnut stock, with its red recoil pad and black forend tip, is in superb condition, complemented by the early tang safety and factory Ruger scope rings. The rifle is mechanically sound and comes with its original box, adding to its collectible value. All markings are crisp, and the Mag-Na-Port enhances its functionality for hunting or range use.
