Mine is an older tang safety no warning ruger 77 red pad.
sat in a gun shop here in san jose on consignment for a long while and every few months the seller would mark it down i finally jumped on it at $450

the Ruger hawkeye is supposed to be really good. but if nobody is making .358 ammo, why are Ruger and and Browning blowing out all these .358 win rifles !? i would really like a ( a good older) savage 99 in .358
