Overview

The Ruger 77/17 is a bolt-action rifle chambered in 17 WSM, a rimfire cartridge known for its high velocity and flat trajectory, making it suitable for small game hunting and pest control at extended ranges compared to many traditional rimfire options. This rifle features a standard magazine capacity of 6 rounds, allowing for a moderate number of shots before reloading. It is equipped with a 20-inch barrel, which contributes to the rifle's overall length and can influence velocity and handling characteristics. As part of Ruger's 77/17 line, this rifle combines a rimfire cartridge with a bolt-action platform, a common configuration for varmint and small game rifles.
