Out buying some rimfire ammo and I stumbled onto an older M77 (tang safety) with a 2-7x30 Leupold scope today for $295. Aside from a couple dings in the stock it's very clean. So, I did something I never do--I slapped down hold money on it.
I love the 7x57 cartridge and my wife has a sporterized Spanish Mauser, so I have dies and some 30-06 converted brass.
But I have plenty of rifles and not a lot of money--so I don't often blow $300 on impulse.
Does this seem like a good deal?
And you folks with M77s, tell if there's anything to watch out for. I'd be shooting it with cast, unless I take it out for larger game.
Any guidance appreciated.
