Ruger M77 Hawkeye Tactical .243 Anyone?

1 Attachment(s)

Have developed an interest in one of these in .243, since my wife doesn't handle a bolt .308's recoil without trouble. Figure this would work better...Curious if any of you have played with one.

Hogue overmolded stock, 20 inch barrel, and a new fully-adjustable trigger. Not sure if pillar bedding...doubt it.

I have looked at the Remington SPS Varmint in .243, but want a shorter, handier length.

Keep in mind... the shorter and "handier" the rifle, the more percieved recoil and shoulder bruising will occur.

No 243. My two main deer rifles are 6mm Remington & 257 Roberts.
Both older Ruger M77s. Not the Hawkeye version.

I have not tried the Ruger .243, but I do shoot a Browning 1885 in .243 that has to be as light. Very easy on the shoulder.

Not sure about the Hogue stock, but that is personal preference.
