What’s Included
- Ruger 77/17 All-Weather rifle
- 1× 9-round Ruger flush-fit rotary magazine (.17 HMR)
Ruger introduced the 77/17 series as one of the first factory rifles chambered for the then-new .17 HMR cartridge. The 24-inch medium-weight barrel delivers velocity and stability, while the 1:9 RH twist is optimized for the 17-grain bullets the round was designed around.
The All-Weather variant features a bead-blasted Target Grey finish on the stainless receiver and barrel. Collectors prize this finish for its subdued look and increased resistance to glare and corrosion.
The laminated hardwood stock offers strength and dimensional stability in changing weather. A straight comb, ambidextrous palm-swell, rubber recoil pad, and installed sling-swivel studs provide comfort and flexibility in the field.
Ruger’s integral scalloped scope bases are machined directly into the receiver, allowing a secure optic mount without added rail weight. The three-position safety lets the shooter cycle the bolt while the rifle remains on safe, enhancing handling at the bench or in the field.
A flush-fit nine-round rotary magazine keeps the bottom profile sleek and feeds reliably, making this rifle equally suited to small-game hunting and precision target work.
