What specifically do I have
« on: February 14, 2009, 01:11:54 PM »
I just bought a M77 in 30-06 with checkered wood stock, flat (beautiful plum color) receiver and rings, no sights and a ship date of 1988 according to the serial number. Exactly what model do I have?

tang safety = M77 MkI
reciever safety = M77 MkII
Though taken from established manufacturers' sources and presumed to be safe please do not use any load that I have posted. Please reference Hogdon, Lyman, Speer and others as a source of data for your own use.

  The "S" signifies it as having sights so...no sights, no "S".
