Saw it advertised in PA and Ive always wanted a 35 Whelen,after some research and finding out I can shoot 35 Whelen from it I figured why not.Its a Ruger 77 tang safety,trigger is fairly light(almost too light) but very crisp.Came with over 200 loaded rounds of Ackley Improved ammo but Ill more than likely pull them all apart and reload them once I get my old die set back in operation.Planning on a vortex/leopold 2-7.Well whats everyone think?

I had 3 tang safety 77s over the years, a 25-06, a 7x57 and a .338 Win Mag.

The 25-06 and the .338 shot lights out...The 7 x 57 shot PATTERNS rather than groups..

It was the only rifle I ever sent down the road because of accuracy issues...
