Default RE: ruger m77 30-06

I bought one that I knew to only have had five rounds through it for MY first deer rifle YEARS ago (finally stopped using my dad and grandpa' s rifles). It' s a standard M-77 mark II, and the only defect it had was one small scratch in the dump plate that I made when the guy let me shoot it (whoops, but it did bring down the price a bit ). I payed $380 for it, with the rings included, and a similar 4x glass to what you mentioned, which I never used on it anyway.

I' m going to say you got a great deal, if it' s in excellent condition, then the rifle alone was probably worth $400, since you can basically consider it new (which would have been $200-300 more) and the weaver is probably a $50-100 glass (been a while since I looked at any of theirs), so I' d say you came out smelling like a rose....as long as it shoots good, when someone tries to sell me a " like new" rifle, I always have to wonder why they are selling it?
