Sweet Ruger!

Uncle posted this up earlier, so you've already all seen it.

So be it.

I have a more-than-minor case of The Wants for the Ruger 77/357.

No indication on whether it will chamber .38s; even if it doesn't a handloader could go places with this. My mouse-fart .38s would be awesome plinking rounds, and as a woods gun this could comfortably handle most anything likely to be seen east of the Mississippi. (Yes, including black bears.)

Their factory sights, unfortunately, suck. That is begging for a fiberoptic bead with a ghost ring, or a super-light holo dot.

Unfortunately, I've blown my gun fund on something else that should be along in a few weeks, so this one will have to wait.
